``Love Songs'', which was released in 1977 following ``Rock and Roll Music'' in 1976 as a new compilation album after the Beatles disbanded in the 1970s, has been made into 2 CDs of American and British original sound sources with different mixes and the first complete video video. Introducing a special collector's edition of the sound source comparison audio album DVD! This album also uses a new remix sound source like "Rock 'n' Roll Music", and this time the US version and the UK version have different remix sound sources, and so far only a few songs have been pointed out as having different mixes. In reality, many of the songs are mixed differently from the original recordings, making this an interesting remix album that should not be overlooked. CD1 includes all songs from the original US Capitol recording with remixed sound sources. CD2 includes all songs from the original British Parlophone recording, which is a remix sound source with the stereo channels reversed from the US version. Both are analog sound sources unique to the record era, which are different from the current official remastered sound sources, and faithfully reproduce the different mixes of the US and UK from the original masters. The DVD includes a video album that visualizes all the songs on the album, and an audio album that allows you to compare the sound sources. In addition to the remixed sound sources of the US and UK releases, the original stereo sound source that has not been remixed is also included. This is a best album with a concept that is the exact opposite of rock'n'roll, with carefully selected mellow soft numbers, but it is now out of print as a compilation album from the analog era, and is a memorial album that has become a collector's item without being released on CD. This is the definitive collector's edition of the latest edition, which reproduces with sound and video!
[Collector's Point]
``Love Songs'', which was released the following year following the 1976 compilation album ``Rock'n'Roll Music'', was planned by Japan and the United States, just like its predecessor, and this time it did not simply use the original stereo mix sound source of the past. A new remix has been used for this album. As with the previous album, there is no specific statement as to whether George Martin was fully involved in all the songs, but he dislikes the original stereo mix from the 1960s and uses a new remix sound source, and for some reason this time, the British version has a better stereo channel. It is known that several songs on ``Rubber Soul'' are narrow mixes that are closer to the center, but although they are recorded in pseudo stereo, the US songs of ``This Boy'' and ``Yes It Is'' are the same. It is a treasure trove of interesting mix differences, such as the differences between the UK and the US version, which has a different mix of ``The Long and Winding Road'', and the stereo separation of many other songs that are different between the US and UK. CD1 includes a remix of the US Capitol album. CD2 contains remixed sound sources of the British Parlophone records, and this time, each CD has been restored and remastered with the latest digital conversion from analog masters and detailed noise removal and correction processing. All songs on the DVD are made into videos based on various video materials such as promo videos and TV shows. This is the first video collection that can be enjoyed as a video album that you can listen to while watching. Furthermore, as a compare audio album, the audio selection switch includes US remix sound source, UK remix sound source, and original stereo sound source that has not been remixed. With the playback function unique to DVDs, it is also possible to compare the different mixes by switching the audio while listening with headphones, and it is clear that most of the songs on this album are different from the original stereo mixes and are remixes unique to the US and UK. Masu. The CD jacket reproduces the gatefold gatefold design of the first gold embossed design of the original US edition. The DVD jacket has an American booklet design specification. This is the second installment of the ``Memorial Album Collection,'' which is a collection of sound source comparison research materials that are attracting collectors' attention and is a maniacal pursuit of the Beatles' valuable compilation albums.
