It’s finally happening. You can all breathe a sigh of relief. The single greatest and most influential band of all time (no, not Journey) will reissue their entire catalog in both mono and stereo on September 9, 2009. When CD’s first made their debut, the Beatles jumped on the bandwagon in 1987. These CD’s have never received a proper upgrade in 22 years. The same shitty low mix, I’ve had the joy of hearing my whole lifetime. When the the Cirque de Soleil soundtrack/Beatles mash up album, Love came out in 2006 I didn’t care for it, but the Beatles song in it were remixed and sounded incredible. If this is what we have to look forward too than dear lord, the Fire Dept. is going to have to axe my door down and save me from a pool of my own sweat and semen.
But wait, that’s not it.
The Beatles are hitting the 21st century (late) but hard. Also, on September 9th, they are releasing their version of the video game, Rock Band. Boasting the ability to sing duel harmonies (the first of it’s kind for the franchise). Years in the making this game looks it, especially with its attention to detail. Look for yourself, because I won’t be there for you.
These 2 releases are enough to bring the U.S. out of the economic slump.
Mark my words, the next in the Rock Band series: Nirvana. With such an immensely popular band and such a short career, the powers that be will continue to rape them for all they are worth.
First off i want to say that them re releasing those albums is fantastic. I personally am very excited. Ok now i am going to say that i puked in my mouth when i saw they were releasing the rock band game. I mean really? that is something you leave to shitty bands like Green Day and Sum 41. It really is a Hack move. It is a disgrace. Would John Lennon want that? is that what the music was about? I shit my pants a little everytime i hear a hendrix song on that stupid fucking game or when i hear a led zepplin song on a car commercial. But having a whole videogame for your music to be played by a bunch of retard kids who have no clue how to play a real musical instrument and have no clue who you are or were. WHAT THE FUCK.

Dear Dr. Theodore lanceford III, I agree and Want your prescription PAD! But I do remember my fellow street physician, that the time you played guitar hero at my house, you were like a lil kid at toys r us LOL! Also in regards to ROCKBAND:NIRVANA That will be harder then chinese algebra to produce bc of that bitch ex-wife of his has all these weird rights to their music.
I understand your distress over the Rock Band game. However, I would much prefer an entire generation of kids growing up listening to and knowing Beatles songs because of this game, instead of the after mentioned Sum 41.

[...] These remasters have me picking out sounds and subtle nuances I never heard before. I might be slow on the train here, but there are BONGOS on the song “A Hard Day’s Night”?!? I’m hearing vocal fuck ups, people coming in too late/too soon, chatter that got picked up on the mic by accident, etc. But those vocals sound heavenly. You can hear their echo on the Please, Please Me and With The Beatles albums. It’s really something to behold. McCartney’s bass playing is more audible than ever before. [...]
Congratulations on your prolific work here. I must admit I have popped in a read a good number of your blogs but I have no idea how to post a response over there, so I’ll tell you now how good you are at describing the stuff your at – I must admit I find it insightful to read your blogging. Keep up the good work. :)
