Magical Mystery Tour Review by Richie Unterberger
Courtesy of AllMusic.comThe U.S. version of the soundtrack for the Beatles' ill-fated British television special embellished the six songs that were found on the British Magical Mystery Tour double EP with five other cuts from their 1967 singles. The psychedelic sound is very much in the vein of Sgt. Pepper's, and even spacier in parts (especially the sound collages of "I Am the Walrus"). Unlike Sgt. Pepper's, there's no vague overall conceptual/thematic unity to the material, which has made Magical Mystery Tour suffer slightly in comparison. Still, the music is mostly great, and "Penny Lane," "Strawberry Fields Forever," "All You Need Is Love," and "Hello Goodbye" were all huge, glorious, and innovative singles. The ballad "The Fool on the Hill," though only a part of the Magical Mystery Tour soundtrack, is also one of the most popular Beatles tunes from the era.

Blue banner at the top cover (front & back) "Original Master Recording"
White Mo-Fi label has the EMI box logo (not Capitol).
Issued in a gatefold jacket, each pressing came with a posterboard fold-out insert protecting the LP. On one side had a photo of historical-looking figures holding up Mo-Fi LPs stating "Limited Editions From the Original Masters", the other side is a description of Mo-Fi's background & process. Inside the fold out shows other Mo-Fi releases.
The LP itself is translucent (hold it up to a bright light and you can see through it) and comes in a paper-lined rice paper sleeve.
Also included is a yellow 5" x 8" Certificate of Limited Warranty, a Business-Reply survey mailer and 8.5" x 11" order form for Mo-Fi's GEO-DISC! (see photos)
