Last night I bought the new “Revolver” remix, but only the album itself and not the expanded outtake version that cost $34 or thereabouts.
I’m saying again that a significant reason for the Beatles’ success was the fact that three of them were exceptionally good looking. If the Beatles had been burdened with homely faces (i.e., if they had looked like two or three of the dorks in The Association) their trajectory might have been quite different.
Is the ’22 Revolver remix a cash grab? Of course it is, but it’s also the first using a digital technology (developed by Peter Jackson’s team) that allowed Giles Martin to break it all down, instrument for instrument, and remix or even reconstitute the original songs. I can really hear and even feel the enhancements.
