Three Fantastic Holiday Gifts For Any Beatles Fan

Posted: December 12th, 2009 | Category: Arts and Entertainment

The Beatles Stereo Box Set

Every album The Beatles recorded from 1962 through ‘70 in remastered stereo! These 16 discs sound absolutely fantastic and are definitely a significant upgrade from the old 1987 CDs. They are definitely worth buying. Any Beatles fan would love to get this as a gift.

The drums & the bass in particular sound so much better on these remastered CDs. While these elements (and many others) were often “buried in the mix” on the old CDs now everything can be heard clearly.

Besides the awesome sound, there’s also the awesome packaging and the fact that it comes with a documentary DVD that is not available for individual purchase.

The Beatles Mono CD Box Set

The original mono versions of The Beatles first ten albums are finally on CD with this mono CD box set. This is a great gift for the really serious Beatles fan because it’s the Beatles albums as they were originally intended to be heard by the band themselves.

Many fans will be curious to hear these original mixes because in some cases they are substantially different from the stereo mixes. For example “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” has a lot more effects on the vocals.

The Beatles Rock Band Game

This is a good gift for any Beatles fanatic who is also into video games. But I would definitely say that you don’t have to be a gamer to enjoy this game. It’s really great for any fan of The Beatles. I think even those who think that they don’t like playing video games will find out that they love playing this game..

The most fantastic part of the game for myself is the singing. It’s so fun to sing all of The Beatles songs and you can even sing the harmonies. This is a great way to learn how to sing harmonies better.

It’s also a really fun party game because three people can sing at once and for the singing part of the game you don’t need any of the expensive Rock Band instruments you just need three microphoens (and these mics are very cheap.)
