The Beatles and Escher Demos
Limited anniversary edition
Apple Records 4 LP box set 50th anniversary edition on 180g heavyweight vinyl mastered at 1/2 speed with new stereo mixes by Giles Martin. Comes in a lift-top box which comprises of
- 'The Beatles' album newly remastered (half speed mastering) by Giles Martin sourced directly from the original four-track and eight-track session tapes. The album comes in a gatefold sleeve with reproduction of original artwork with embossed "The Beatles" logo and four portrait prints of John, Paul, George and Ringo,
- 'Esher Demos' in gatefold sleeve with embossed "The Beatles" logo and 'Esher Demos' printed on lower left,
- a 12"×24" four-page booklet with articles by Paul McCartney, Giles Martin & Kevin Howlett and
- a 24"×36" fold-out poster with photos of the band members on the front and song lyrics on the back.
For 50 years, ‘The White Album’ has invited its listeners to venture forth and explore the breadth and ambition of its music, delighting and inspiring each new generation in turn. The album's 30 newly mixed tracks are also joined here by 27 early acoustic Esher Demos, most of which are previously unreleased in any form. Much of the initial songwriting for The White Album was done in Rishikesh, India between February and April 1968, when Lennon, McCartney, Harrison, and Starr joined a course at the Maharishi's Academy of Transcendental Meditation. In a postcard to Ringo, who had returned to England before the others, John wrote, "we've got about two L.P.s worth of songs now so get your drums out." During the last week of May, The Beatles gathered at George's house in Esher, Surrey, where they recorded acoustic demos for 27 songs. Known as the Esher Demos, all 27 recordings have been sourced from the original four-track tapes. Twenty-one of the demoed songs were recorded during the subsequent studio sessions, and 19 were ultimately finished and included on The White Album. Seven have previously been released on Anthology, but they were mixed with the technology of the time and now Giles has been able to really clean them up and bring out the intimate nature of the recordings. This is the first time The BEATLES (‘White Album’) has been remixed and presented with additional demos and session recordings. To create the new stereo and 5.1 surround audio mixes for ‘The White Album,’ Martin and Okell worked with an expert team of engineers and audio restoration specialists at Abbey Road Studios in London. All the new ‘White Album’ releases include Martin’s new stereo album mix, sourced directly from the original four-track and eight-track session tapes. Martin’s new mix is guided by the album’s original stereo mix produced by his father, George Martin.
