Wogblog has a review of the 6-disc Deluxe edition and the selections sound fantastic. Important to note the takes which were on ‘Anthology’ are not identical to the takes here. It also contains a link to a review of 2017 stereo remix of the album at Audiophile Review.

The comments re the dynamic range are a bit worrying. I hate hard limited mixes.

I will openly say that after I heard these outtakes I will want more. 

‘Lucy’ take one is gorgeous in its simplicity. John perfected his vocal, you can hear Paul at the end guiding him in the way it will eventually be sung. The Lowrey Organ sounds so strange yet fabulous.

This isn’t strictly a Beatle thing, but it’s an article that I thought was pretty neat and I didn’t know where else to put it.

Ultimate Classic Rock posted their review of the Deluxe edition last night.

Doesn’t go into much detail but it’s still an interesting read.

Wogblog published a review on Monday detailing what was new on the outtakes and what had been previously released. Some of the tracks are faded out a few seconds longer as well as stray notes being removed from before tracks start where bootlegs are complete and some dialogue is shorter than can be found on ‘Rock Band’. Well worth reading.

I got my confirmation email from Amazon saying the deluxe had been shipped and will be here Friday.

I work Friday 1/2 7 to 6.

Mine has been shipped as well. I’ll be receiving it at 5:35 pm on Friday.

I will be celebrating this box set as well as the anniversary of the Montreal Bed-In for Peace and the anniversary of my quitting drinking on May 26, 2014.

Nah. It’s it’s the 6-disc set packaged like vinyl. The book is cool too.
