I'd like to have a complete set of Beetles CD's sometime, but it seems that all of the ones available today are the re-mastered variety, with poor recording quality.
Is this the case? That a good set of Beetles CD's that you can buy today, doesn't exist?

I thought that the last set of re-masters were supposed to be very good. I remember a couple of people here picking them up and commenting. No?

I think the newest box sets are the best ones you are going to find in terms of sound quality.

Look for " THE BEATLES" stereo box set - much better remastering - you can actually hear what Ringo is doing on the drums - a little costly but a needed investment

The stereo box set will give you the complete collection. The mono box set does not include "Let it Be" or "Abbey Road" as both were recorded in stereo.

My very first Beetles album that I bought, was the Magical Mystery Tour album. I had one of those record players with stereo speakers that hang onto the sides or you could detatch and seperate them. I could swear that it was in stereo also.

It probably was, but it's more of a simulated stereo where the sound engineers made it stereo-like. What you'll get is voices coming out of one speaker and guitars coming out the other.

How do you think kid bands learned their parts? It sounds awful, but it made copping much easier. And WHO missspellled BEATLES?? Hmmm?

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

You're right it is Beatles. I always spelled it the other way. I had to look it up to make sure.

Well - the group started out - from Wiki.... "Aged sixteen, John Lennon formed a skiffle group called The Quarrymen, in March 1957.[1] Fifteen-year-old Paul McCartney joined as a guitarist after he and Lennon met that July.[10] When McCartney in turn invited George Harrison to watch the group the following February, the fourteen-year-old joined as lead guitarist.[11][12] By 1960, Lennon's schoolfriends had left the group, he had begun studies at the Liverpool College of Art and the three guitarists were playing rock and roll whenever they could get a drummer.[13] Lennon's fellow student Stu Sutcliffe joined on bass in January. Sutcliffe suggested changing the band name to "The Beetles" as a tribute to Buddy Holly and The Crickets,[14] and they became "The Beatals" for the first few months of the year.[15][16] In May 1960 they undertook a brief tour of Scotland, as backing group for pop singer Johnny Gentle.[17] After trying other names including "Johnny and the Moondogs", "Long John and The Beetles" and "The Silver Beatles", the band finally became "The Beatles" in August."

Watching the Beatles Anthology, all of the popular groups at the time had some fancy-smancy names, so Beatles was changed to Silver Beatles in an attempt to keep up with the Jones.

i think he means "the Joneses", an expression meaning to do what everyone else is doing or better.

I don't know, but I'll bet CV has a video copy of the copyright infringement trial depositions to prove it!
