The Beatles (White Album) [VINYL]

Great recording, no sound issues at all

No dislikes

Very happy

I'm not really going to go into how the Beatles' eponymous 'White Album' is one of the best records of all time. There's numerous essays, articles and reviews on just that. But it's certainly a record that'd endured for many decades and, despite it's very long tracklist, finds no end of catchy pop numbers, blues pieces and rockers. I would say it's really a must-have for any rock fan's vinyl collection, and on vinyl the new, Giles Martin remix really does sound *incredible*. Somehow, over half a century later, it's fresh. Timeless.Both discs are in nice, lined sleeves, themselves housed in a gatefold like that of the original pressing. This double LP has some high-quality photocards of the band members, and a really big, fold-out collage of related photos and all the lyrics. It's as faithful as it needs to be, and such a perfect homage to this record. 'Revolution 1' sounds flawess, as do the depthy numbers of 'Glass Onion', 'While My Guitar...' and 'I'm so tired'. All in all, this is an impeccable effort, and worth buying all over again.

A week ago I sold my original 1968 Mono version of this album. It was in the very very low thousands and it made good money. The first thing I did with the cash was bought this 2018 50th Anniversary Edition.I loved my well played Mono version with its crackles and pops in a warm and nostalgic way but with this new album I feel I there are nuances I have not heard before particularly in the drumming.I just know that The Beatles and George Martin would have done it like this had they had the technology and I think this version will hold its money.This album is no better or worse than the original pressing, its strength is its freshness, it invigorates this classic album.Buy with confidence.

I loved the Sgt Pepper mix so this was a no brainer. It is a great re-issue on many levels. The sound clarity and depth are fantastic. The songs sound like finished articles and you hear how powerful this band could be. I won't pick and choose but hear "Birthday" - it's a full frontal aural attack. The one slight disappointment I have is that whilst the instruments sound a lot more balanced and pan realistically across the sound spectrum, the lead vocals on many tracks come out slightly left of centre. Not full blown left (or right) as on the original stereo issue but enough to notice, unlike the Pepper lead vocals.I'm sure if it had been possible Mr Martin and his team would have done it, and whilst, for me, slightly disappointing, given the overall sound picture, it's still a very strong recommendation to hear (I know it is on Amazon Prime and it must be on Spotify if you want a basic listen before you buy).

Good quality. The only thing - the envelope has an imperfection (a wrinkle). Which appeared, I believe, while was delivered. The package might be more protective.

The beatles finest in my opinion. Beautiful vinyl release on double LP with glossy embossed sleeve and four large photos. Sounds great!

It's the first album I purchased for my son when he got a turntable. Brand new. Pictures and all

Qualidade sonora à altura desse álbum clássico.

I've seen a lot of reviews of Beatles albums complaining of horrible pressing and packaging, so I thought I should report that my Beatles' 'White album' was pristine, beautifully pressed and presented. I've listened to it all the way through and the audio quality is amazing and the new mix by Giles Martin is wonderful. All of the voices and instruments are just where they should be; you can feel the Beatles performing their parts. The stereo breadth and depth gives the illusion that the band is in your living room. The disk is perfectly flat, and there is not even a hint of clicks, pops, or surface noise, and not a spec of dust when I opened the jacket and placed it on my turntable. The label on the outside of the shrink wrap says it was made by Universal Music / Apple Corps, in the EU.I bought it from Canadian Marketplace vendor, NaturalSound. It arrived a day before promised in what looks like an extra-strong 12" pizza box. The album was suspended in the middle of the box with bubble-wrap, and there wasn't a mark on the box or the product.

Venía muy completo, 30 canciones, es el mejor album que he comprado

Quizá uno de los discos dobles más mágicos y magnéticos de la música. Una mezcla de estilos al alcance de muy pocos. Obviando que una de sus canciones sino dos sirvieron de inspiración para unos famosos asesinatos, el disco de los de Liverpool es una maravilla.
