To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the global Beatles phenomenon , Capitol Records is reviving
a collection of The Beatles' albums, primarily those released in the US in 1964, as new mono-mixed vinyl records. These
180-gram records are cut from the original mono masters and feature
artwork faithfully reproduced from the originals. Furthermore, a new fold-out insert includes an essay by American Beatles scholar/writer Bruce Spicer. The lacquer disc cutting was newly done by Kevin Reeves at East Iris Studios in Nashville.
The mastering
notes state that the vinyl was cut using the original master tapes, and that the process involved using only analog signal paths, constantly referencing the sound of the earliest pressings of the original albums. This vinyl record was produced using a Studer A80 master recorder with analog preview/program path functionality, and a Neumann VMS70 cutting machine, which was installed at Capitol Studios in 1971. By carrying out the entire cutting process using analog equipment, it is possible to faithfully reproduce the frequency range and dynamics recorded on the original tape.
<Japan Edition Only>

English liner notes, and translated
