The White Album Mono Vinyl

I would recommend this to a friend.

The white album mono vinyl.

A wonderful recreation of the original release of the white album complete with embossed name and individual serial number on the cover and the four individual color portraits and the poster with lyrics on the reverse side. In an audiophile minded undertaking the beatles acclaimed mono albums have been newly mastered for vinyl from quarter inch master tapes at abbey road studios by grammy winning engineer sean magee. The vinyl album package replicates the original materials distributed with the album. So it was really the first release of the mono mix in the u s.

The mono white album has remained out of print on vinyl since then. The vinyl pressing is very quiet and the mono mix has an intimate feel that is missing from the more familiar stereo mix. Working in the same room at abbey road where most of the beatles albums were initially cut the pair first dedicated weeks to concentrated listening fastidiously comparing the master tapes with first pressings of the mono records made in the 1960s using a rigorously tested studer a80 machine to play back the precious tapes the new vinyl was cut on a 1980s era vms80 lathe. Which isn t a huge surprise since most of the rest of the band s catalog is also out of print on lp in the u s.

The beatles white album is released in mono on 180 gram vinyl with faithfully replicated artwork newly mastered from the analogue master tapes.
