Review: Wow…Wow…Wow…and let me introduce to you, the one and only Billy Shears…how could the most musically defining work of the last half of the 20th century be better? You get Paula and Ringo’s blessing and set out to make a real stereo album from the original mono four track tapes with the son of the original producer (Sir George Martin) at the helm. This is amazing stuff. Hear the whole dam thing in perfect stereo, listen to Ringo drum…(he may be the best of all time) and then all the original studio outtakes of the beginnings of these incredible performances. SPLHCB ws the most riveting audio experience that had ever come about when it appeared 50 years ago…so far beyond anything to that date…and now it is redone in a glory that was not possible at that time. Run! Get it! Play it LOUD and OFTEN.
