Description
SEALED NEW 2014 the Mono Boxed Set was released to reflect the fact that most of the Beatles' catalog was originally mixed and released in the monophonic format. Stereo recordings were a fairly new concept for pop music in the 1960's and didn't become standard until the late sixties. This explains why the Beatles initial album releases were mixed for mono. By the late sixties, however, stereo recording for pop music was becoming more popular and, thus, the new standard. Therefore, the last few Beatles albums were mixed and released only in stereo - "Yellow Submarine," "Abbey Road" and "Let It Be." Many feel that the mono mixes reflect the true intention of the band. For example, in the case of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, all the mono mixes were done together with the Beatles themselves, throughout the recording of the album, whereas the stereo mixes were done in only six days by Abbey Road personnel George Martin, Geoff Emerick and Richard Lush after the album had been finished, with none of the Beatles attending.
