The Beatles Remasters Are Coming To Vinyl In 2010

Some Beatles fans feel that vinyl LPs are the ultimate way to listen to an album. They think that there’s just a certain magic to watching the record rotate and knowing that the amazing sound you are hearing is coming from a needle instead of a bunch of ones and zeroes like with CDs.

It is this “magic feeling” (to quote The Beatles) that has Beatles fiends very excited about the strong possibility of The Beatles remasters (which have sold extremely well on CD) making their way onto vinyl records in 2010. Although as of this moment no date for release has been officially set, it’s believed that Apple (The Beatles Apple, not the computer company) is working on a Vinyl record release of The Beatles stereo remasters.

The Beatles LPs that are currently available were created using the’87 digital remasters so these 2010 vinyl LPs should be significantly improved in sound quality like the new CDs are in comparison to the’87 discs (and, by the way, I definitely recommend listening to these new CDs if you haven’t yet.

Like many other Beatles fans I’m definitely planning on ordering The Beatles Remasters Vinyl Records Box Set as soon as it is available (I’m positive it’ll sell out very quickly) even though I’ve already purchased all of these 2009 remasters on CD (and on The Beatles USB.)

According to the interviews that I’ve seen, the new Beatles vinyl records will be available individually and as a part of a box set (just like The Beatles remastered stereo CDs.) The rumored release date is 3/16/2010 but there is a good possibility that will not end up as the actual date.

While you’re waiting for the vinyl LPs I strongly recommend buying The Beatles in Stereo CD Box Set and The Beatles in Mono Box Set. They both sound incredible. I personally end up listening to stereo CDs more often (as I just prefer listening to music in stereo more than in mono, in general) but that being said, the mono versions are very interesting to hear too.
