The
Beatles – The Capitol Albums
box set comprises The Beatles first 4 US (Capitol) albums – available for the
first time on CD in this form. Tracks from all four US albums (Meet The Beatles,
The Beatles' Second Album, Something New and Beatles '65), originally released
40 years ago, will be available both in mono and stereo.
Packaging features
the original US album sleeve designs in card wallets, plus a brand new 52 page
booklet in the style of a scrap book, with comprehensive notes by Beatles expert
Mark Lewisohn, a great selection of pictures and memorabilia from the era, plus
quotes from the Beatles themselves. Artwork features the Fab Four and the
Capitol Rainbow label in a longbox/slipcase format, which folds to CD size for
ease of racking when the longbox is removed.
Unlike their UK
counterparts, the early US albums contained many of the favourite early Beatles
hits, only available on singles at the time in the UK, and have been in demand
on CD for many years.
