THE BEATLES (‘White Album’) will be re-mixed and extended with additional demo and session recordings. Giles Martin and Sam Okell collaborated with a team of engineers and audio conservators at Abbey Road Studios in London to discuss the new stereo and 5.1. Create surround sound mixes for “The White Album”. All new ‘White Album’ releases include Martin’s new stereo album mix, directly from the original four-track and eight-track session bands. Martin’s new mix is inspired by the original stereo mix of the album produced by his father George Martin.
In the last week of May in 1968, The Beatles gathered in Georges house in Esher, Surrey, where they recorded acoustic demos for 27 album songs. All these 27 recordings, known as Esher Demos, are from the original four-track tapes and are included in the 7-Disc Super Deluxe Box.
The extensive 7-Disc Collection contains:
CDs 1 & 2: 2018 Stereo Album Mix
CD3: Esher demos
CDs 4, 5 & 6: Sessions – 50 additional recordings, mostly unpublished, from the studio sessions of the ‘White Album’; all remixed from the four-track and eight-track session bands, sorted by their recording start dates.
