Universal Music continue to exploit their newly acquired Beatles catalogue, with a comprehensive reissue of the band’s output as released in North America via a 13CD ‘The U.S. Albums’ box set as well as limited individual CD reissues of 12 of those Capitol Records’ titles.
The reissues span 1964’s Meet The Beatles! to 1970’s Hey Jude and are released in January 2014, exactly 50 years after the mop tops celebrated I Want To Hold Your Hand becoming their first American number one.
Key points:
• Each CD in the box set will contain mono and then stereo versions of the original albums except The Beatles’ Story and Hey Jude which are stereo only.
• The 2009 remasters have been used to create these US albums newly EQ’d from a 24/192 digital source alongside original 1960s U.S. master analog tapes to preserve specific mixes and edits
• Each album is a mini-LP CD vinyl replica faithfully recreating original artwork including inner sleeves (think Mono box)
• Yesterday And Today will use the infamous ‘butcher cover’ but will come with a sticker of the ‘trunk’ cover which you can choose to paste over the top!
• The 13 CDs are accompanied by a 64-page booklet with Beatles photos and promotional art from the time, as well as a new essay by American author and television executive Bill Flanagan
• A Hard Day’s Night (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), The Beatles’ Story, Yesterday And Today, Hey Jude, and the U.S. version of Revolver make their CD debuts with these releases.
• The colourful red, white and blue box will have an inner ‘drawer’ which slides into the outer box.The uninitiated might wonder what the difference is between what The Beatles released in the UK and what was put out in the United States. Well, in the sixties, Capitol Records (EMI’s American operation) famously went ‘off-piste’ with their Fab Four releases, and didn’t just echo the official Parlophone issues. The US label created completely different Beatles albums (Meet The Beatles, Yesterday And Today) or chopped, amended or edited familiar titles (Help!, Revolver). It wasn’t uncommon for tracks from one British release to be spread across three separate US titles.
Also, it was common practice in the UK to leave singles off albums to give ‘value’ to the pop picker, but that wasn’t something that troubled Capitol executives’ collective consciences, and all the big hit 45s were bolted on to the various long players. The US eventually fell into line with the UK and from 1967 – starting with Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band – the albums were always identical (although the Magical Mystery Tour (1967) and Hey Jude (1970) LPs were still unique Capitol creations).
Obviously, the US releases will have great resonance to anyone who grew up buying them in that part of the world, but for collectors and Beatles enthusiasts outside America, they still represent something of a treasure trove, with lots of alternative and unique mixes found dotted across the individual albums – both in mono and stereo (sometimes duophonic or ‘fake’ stereo). Most of the quirks of the original Capitol audio – fake stereo and added reverb and the like – will not feature on these reissues because Apple are reverting to the 2009 remasters. However according to this article unique edits or mixes that were supplied to the US by George Martin have been maintained. So the track listings have been recreated by a mix of 2009 core catalogue remasters and original 1960s Capitol analogue master tapes. and EQ more in line with the US audience of the 1960s has been applied.

The release of Boston Common 8/17/71 marks another chapter of self-released archival recordings from the Allman Brothers Band Recording Company, which has also issued American University 12/13/70, Stonybrook 9/19/71, Macon 2/11/72 and Nassau Coliseum 5/1/73. John Lynskey–ABB authority and publisher of the group’s Hittin’ The Note magazine–wrote the liner notes and sums up this Boston show, a city that continues to embrace the Allman Brothers Band:
“1971 was a watershed year for the Allman Brothers Band – they recorded their seminal live album, At Fillmore East, in March, and continued to tour relentlessly. By this point, their performances had reached a level of musicianship and intensity that other groups could only dream of. At Fillmore East was released in July to massive critical acclaim, and a month later, they rolled back into Boston to once again jam in the Common, playing two shows on August 17th. Boston Common 8/17/71 manages to capture the loose and engaging early set, with the band clearly enjoying themselves – Berry [Oakley]’s stage banter is particularly engaging as he comments on the group’s relationship with Boston and their friendship with the J. Geils Band. As for the music, Duane’s slide guitar is blistering on ‘Statesboro Blues’ and ‘Don’t Keep Me Wonderin’’; his interplay with Dickey [Betts] on ‘You Don’t Love Me’ is a complex masterpiece, and their dual melody line on ‘In Memory of Elizabeth Reed’ is flawless. Gregg’s vocal work is stellar throughout, and his growl on ‘Trouble No More’ clearly justifies his reputation as one of the best blues singers of all time. Berry, Butch and Jaimoe lay down a rhythm foundation that is a mile wide – the thumping bass line and syncopated drum patterns turn the ‘Whipping Post’ finale into a musical maelstrom.” RollingStone.

ABBA‘s deluxe edition reissue series continues with a CD+DVD 40th Anniversary Edition of 1974′s Waterloo.

The DVD looks reasonably good with 13 TV appearances, most of them previously unreleased. As you would expect the Eurovision Song Contest performance of Waterloo is included and there is also an interview.

The booklet will contain an essay on the making of the album, with new insights from Björn and Benny.
The Waterloo deluxe edition will be issued on 7 April 2014.

Als Kind. Das sind ja ohnehin Kinderlieder, was ich nicht negativ meine. Wie man diese Musik heute und als Erwachsener hören kann, ist mir völlig schleierhaft.

Na immerhin. Dachte schon, dass du sie niemals gemocht hast.
Bin auch kein großer Abba-Fan, aber einige wenige Tracks höre ich dann doch immer mal wieder ganz gern, z.B. „The winner takes it all“, „Thank you for the music“ oder „Dancing queen“…

Hättest du „Knowing Me..“ genannt, aber die drei verursachen bei mir wirklich Bauchschmerzen.

Universal Music are preparing a 40th Anniversary reissue of Deep Purple‘s 1972 live tour-de-force Made In Japan.
Expected at the end of March 2014, this set will feature all three nights (Osaka 15th/16th August and Tokyo 17th August 1972) across three CDs and all the encores collected on a fourth disc (six tracks, including three Black Nights!). A fifth disc comes in the form of a DVD which contains a new documentary and some hi-res content.
Amazingly, there will also be a nine LP vinyl box with the full track listing from the CDs. All the audio for this reissue has been newly remixed by Martin Pullan.

Da wird wohl nichts neues dabei sein, bei der 3 CD Version Live in Japan sind die Konzerte von Osaka und Tokio enthalten. Black Night als Zugabe vom 15.08.72 in Osaka. Dann werden die beiden anderen Black Night Zugaben wohl vom 16.08.72 Osaka und 17.08.72 Tokio sein. Nur etwas für Komplettisten.
