Although the remastered sound is pristine on both sets, the stereo separation mixes bothers me as much as it always has. I don't WANT vocals on one side and the band on the other. What's natural about that? I receivedt he mono boxed set for Chrsitmas and must say, afetr having bought the stereo "Hard Day' s Night," that I prefer mono.

I purchased 5 of the cd's. I opened Past Masters and the White Album. Past Masters was good - not great- but glad I bought it. White album was a huge disappointment. Yes, the instrumentation is more 'there'. But, the speed of the songs seemed slowed down just enough to notice and the vocals are flatter. And all the parts are too independant sounding from each other. Listen to Blackbird - Paul's voice has no warmth or carry. Flat. I suppose I would say that this re-mastering took the soul out of the music. I played them at work for my group of 7 - and they too were unimpressed considering all the hoopla. Anyway, I took the other 3 cd's back for a refund. And I love the Beatles. well , I for one was very disappointed in the result.

I was born in early 1965 too and I've been a huge highly impressed Beatles fan (specifically a big John and Paul fan) since I was 11 when I got my first Beatles book and I had every album by age 13.
