At least they still put all the unique mixes from US on this set. I also love the Mini LP CD covers and inserts etc..so top quality. I wish the UK set was done as well and not those digi pack covers. Both sets are worth having. Quality wise this is the set to have. take care

As a huge Beatles fan, I always enjoy your videos and appreciate your efforts!

Hey Dustino. I recently bought this legit box set. Also on yesterday and today, the stereo mix of day tripper has the original capitol mix. I’m not sure but I think there’s some extra reverb on these tracks that people are missing. I have heard the capitol box sets so I can compare… either way, you’re 100 percent right. The package is awesome! Great videos!

I agree about Introducing... on VJ. I had a copy back in 1964 that was almost certainly counterfeit, but that's another story. But I really think they should have had at least Magical Mystery Tour, if not Pepper and the the rest, which were essentially the same as their UK counterparts (they did different packaging in the case of White and Let it Be but nothing too different).

Thanks for another great video and highlighting this box set! Like Matthew said in another comment, this is one of my favorite Beatles sets. As you mentioned, the packaging is awesome, and you also get the stereo and mono versions of the albums. The set was mastered by Greg Calbi, and despite not using the Capitol tapes as the source (I’m one of those who like the Capitol mixes), the set is very well mastered! The sound quality is really very good.

This is one of my fave Beatles boxed sets Dustino! Thanks for highlighting it. Cheers Matt

Great video once again! There is a myth circulating about the 2014 The Beatles U.S. Albums that they just sequenced them to the original Capitol LPs using the 2009 stereo & mono remasters. They did use unique U.S. mixes (sometimes mono, sometimes stereo) on some of the songs such as with "I Feel Fine"/"She's a Woman" with the extra reverb. You still have the false start with "I'm Looking Through You" and the extra coda of "And I Love Her" etc. The just didn't use the fake Duophonic stereo for songs like "She Loves You" & "I'll Get You" etc. although I realize some people are sentimental about Duophonic.

I used to think they were fighting over a conductor's baton on the cover of Beatles VI.

On them not using all of the exact same Capitol fake stereo mixes I think since those 2004 Capitol sets already exist there is not too much reason to make them again. It's good the other CD set does preserve most of the old mixes for historical value, but also as a younger fan who first had the pre-2009 CDs as my introduction to the band, many of the Capitol mixes sound completely awful and should be left in the past. The fake stereo mixes were not artistic choices but instead "ah, we are releasing a stereo album and can't be bothered to get a proper stereo mix from EMI." This set seems to retain a lot of the quirks of the US albums while not making it sound like the band fell down a well or are lost in a cave.

Hey Dustin, so these songs are how they are shown on the 2009 UK reissues? They don't have the original nuances, correct? Thanks!

I'm still on the fence whether or not I should get this (probably will if I find an authentic one at a good price). But if I do, I'll make some custom ones for the missing albums: - Introducing...The Beatles, with the first pressing track list - Sgt Pepper, with the yellow "stereo" band at the top - The Beatles, based on SEBX11841 instead of SWBO101 because the former is easier to reproduce (custom embossers are expensive) and because the latter has the exact same labels as the UK original - Yellow Submarine with the US text at the back - Abbey Road (not sure if there are markings on the Capitol version that makes it different from the UK original) - Let It Be with the gatefold sleeve EDIT: I'll also probably need to source a second copy of Magical Mystery Tour from the mono box set to round up the set.

Got the other 2 US covers
