The Beatles in Mono CD box set - unboxing video

[MagicalMysteryMike]

Love that you went back for a look at this set. It's one of the best CD Box sets I've ever seen. The Mini LP style was a great way to go!

[mattyboywalker]

I've got both the mono and stereo boxsets absolutely love them

[noelmurray]

The Beatles! A truly unique band! Their like will never come again!

11:03 As there were originally only 10, 000 made, surely they could've numbered the box sets 00, 0001-10, 000 by embossing the front cover of each 'White Album'? Missed a trick for the collectors there! I found a site a few years back that listed all the differences between the mono and stereo albums of The Beatles. Fortunately I printed them all off so if anyone has any questions about differences on any particular albums fire away and I'll answer them here! Thanks Paul and SDE for another great review. Just wish I had the funds to have afforded to have bought it back in 2009. The Japanese mono cd's were available individually in 1998. I have a few of them. Cheers.

I never understood why mono is necessary now, so give me stereo, please, The Beatles sound so well and decent in stereo format!

Thanks for doing these unboxings Paul. Great to see box sets I missed out on or couldn't afford at the time. Also loving your report in Germany you did a few years back. Keep them coming.

A Hard Day’s Night isn’t only the first album to have all Lennon/McCartney compositions but the only album to do so.

This box set was so well-designed that I built a matching box set for the stereo digisleeves. Took a few months to reverse-engineer without dismantling the original box but it was well worth it.

Amazing video man, these are such amazing items for a Beatles collection

[derekroberts]

Actually it’s missing only 2 albums “Let It Be” and “Abbey Road” the mono versions of the 4 exclusive “Yellow Submarine” song are on the “Mono Masters”…

I was very fortunate enough to get the Beatles stereo and mono box that’s at the same time I love both of them especially the amount of boxes because they have very wonderful and unique mixes especially the longer fade outs on got to get you into my life love you too and all you need is love. I love the mono box sets they’re fantastic that mono CD box set from 2009 is just great I’m glad that Apple Records decided to release both of them in 9909 I bought them a year after they were released. I bought them at my favorite music store Music Millennium in Portland Oregon and I’m so glad I did everything about the packaging is fantastic in the mono box that from the little booklets to the reproduction in our sleeves and I love the LP cover aspect which I think is the way that CD album cover should be in.

Hi Paul . Thanks for the nice look back at the Mono box. A great collectible. If I’m not mistaken the Sgt. Pepper mono CD was also included in the Super Deluxe 50th anniversary box set.

I purchased the original Mono Box Set from Japan with the OBI. What a box set. I was very fortunate get that set. Unfortunately, when the vinyl Mono set was released, I missed out on the set. Maybe one day they will re-release that set.

I feel like a kid in the candy shop. Awesome work! Good commenting :)

HOWARD WEBER says - Just to remind everyone, on the original stereo Capitol MMT album, the last 3 songs on side 2 were not in stereo. Also, the problem with only having the mono box is you`re missing a lot of the Capitol mono mixes such as- I`ll cry instead - Any time at all - When I get home - And I love her from the mono Something New album and the same with the mono Yesterday and today album.

I Hope they will Reissue all the mono original vinyle albums

I think this one is good. Definitely worth buying at a reasonable price. Thank you, Paul. I really love these videos. ✌️🙂

I wish a 50th anniversery of Rubber Soul, Revolver and Let it Be would be released but they have only done Sgt. Pepper's, The White Album and Abbey Road.

It's interesting to point out on the Mono Masters one disc is Parlophone, the other is Apple.

I’ve got a fabulous collection of CD Promo Boxes full of CD’s from various groups including every Queen album art with drawers. Some of them cost a fortune relatively speaking for essentially cardboard boxes! The Yes ‘Relayer’ one cost me over £100.00 and is is my second favourite box (after the Queen II box because that cover is my iconic pick and my fave album of all time).
