Beatles Remastered Albums get Release Date

If you are the type to sit around waiting for long lost Beatles tracks to appear or painfully wishing to be able to pretend that you are an actual rock star from the 60's, you may be pleased to know that on September 9 (that is, 9/9/09) all of the fab four's studio albums will be available in a new and exciting digitally remastered version. I mean I know I was just sitting here thinking "these songs would be good, but they are just sooo analog." So yeah.

Extra goodies include expanded booklets with rare photos and according to Rolling Stone "for a limited time, each of the Fab Four’s 12 proper albums will be “embedded” with a brief documentary about its making. The rereleases will include the Beatles’ 12 studio albums and Magical Mystery Tour as well as Past Masters Vol. I and II, which will be packaged as one collection. All 14 discs will be available with DVDs of the documentaries in a stereo box set, and a set titled The Beatles in Mono featuring 10 discs will also be released."

Apparently, engineers at Abbey Road Studios have spent the last four years remastering albums from the catchy insects using new technology and vintage equipment in an effort to preserve “the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings” and ensure the highest (ahem) "fidelity the catalog has seen since its original release.”
