Description
This remarkable final analogue German edition of this legendary Beatles box set dates from around 1983.
It contains 13 German DMM (Direct Metal Mastering) pressed albums, all cut directly from the original analogue master tapes (not the later digital sources).
All mastering was done by John Cremer at EMI Electrola, Cologne, giving these pressings their own distinctive, high-quality sound.
Included are all UK studio albums, plus the bonus ‘Rarities’ LP, which here – unlike any other edition worldwide – features the true stereo version of Rain.
Each record comes in its original semi glossed cover with the original poly-lined inner sleeves.
