Honest, I spent about 3 hours listening to different parts of lucy in the sky with diamonds & changed my mind about 7 times. Yeah I am not keen with voice in one ear, annoys me.

thanks for the link will have a read up.

i did mono since the beatles themselves were involved in the mixing process.

Mono for everything up to & including Sgt Peppers, either for Magical Mystery Tour then stereo for The White Album, Abbey Road and Let it Be. There are still a few points on the mono tracks - for example at the end of Got to Get You into My Life - where I'm not used to the alternative mixes having listened to the stereo records for years before the remasters, those bits always throw me a little.

thanks Rodatron.

I'm sorting it out now, no more replies now please I'm just going by what Rod has put, i know some cunt is gonna disagree with Rod now and then start playing tricks with my mind.

Thank fuck the Stones don't have this problem, my hair would probably fall out.

I take it past masters both in mono as well yeh?

past masters has a different track-listing than mono masters.

Yea, gonna play some tricks Karl.

While the mono mixes of AHDN and BFS are good, their stereo counterparts are excellent and you should really listen to both to decide. While mono is the original intention for the albums up to Abbey Road (White Album was mono in the UK; stereo in the states), the stereo mixes are excellent post-With The Beatles.

It also depends how you listen to the music regularly. I'm 99% of the time listening to music in headphones.

Past Masters are different in both sets. IE Mono doesnt have some tracks the Stereo does. You have to look at it and make sure you have all the songs.

the mono set is better for the masters. otherwise you are missing out on hey bulldog and it's all too much.

CUNT

You could of just not replied & let me live happily ever after oblivious to the past master situation Thanks, I guess I will look into it

You cant choose just one, if you skip the stereo set, you lose Ballad of John and Yoko amongst others. There are songs that are only on each set.

you gotta go mono karl.

Go mono on the past masters songs up to White Album era, stereo for the rest, and take the songs that are only on the mono set.

I remember going through each fucking song to make a "definitive" Past Masters...

heres that

yeah benny boy

Thanks Ben, I'll do that.

just waiting for Kev to see this thread & go against the THE GOSPEL TRUTH of what Rod & Ben have just said.

your knowledge would make an good read for the Blog ben.

what you actually want to do is FUCK OFF ALL THIS QUEER CD SHIT and download the 24bit flac files from the apple USB key.
