Do you prefer the 88 remasters sound Il? Also, should I get Rubber Soul remastered at least? Or get the 88 of that too?

i dunno, they don't sound much different to me, and I got the 88 masters on cassette

a better bet is the mono mix

I don't think they're 20 mins. They're about 2-5 mins. or something like that.

Wow, I haven't bothered watching them yet either, but that's short.

Do you think I should stick with the 88 releases since they're much cheaper and the remasters have no added tracks?

I wouldn't get the re-issues just for the films put it that way.

So I kind of lost alot of my Beatles albums and wanted to pick them back up so I went on Amazon and found that many of the original CD releases are around 4 bucks while the remasters are around 13 bucks. My gut is telling me just to save my money and get the old ones, but what do you guys think? Is a remaster with a small audio improvement with no extra tracks and some fancy packaging really worth an extra 9 bucks?

The packaging isn't really fancy, but I would always take remastered.

not when there'ss not much difference in the remastering

the sound is a bit crispier, that's about all

it's nothing like the difference between Kramer's remaster of the Hendrix albums versus the original flat EQ muddy mix

So you would recommend sticking with the older CD's? The remasters are a cash grab?

The Kramer remasters of the Hendrix stuff was the 1997 versions right?
