We all live, etc.

We have to give the moneychangers at Apple credit for releasing the upcoming Mono Box Set, even if the price is too high, and the claim of a limited run of 10,000 is probably disingenuous at best.

Yet wot we is being told by little birdies is besides finally having the long sought-after Sgt. P and White Album-the two most notable in their different mixes from stereo-we will be also getting a special bonus of an aborted 1969 EP release of Yellow Submarine, with five songs-All Together Now, Only A Northern Song, Hey Bulldog,It's All Too Much, Across The Universe-that have never seen (legit) release in mono.
-
Not sure how much different these mono mixes will be as by even early '69 the Fabs were starting to think stereo, but ANYTHINGwe get as a bonus from Apple is reason for wetness.

Oh, and just to whet yer whistle, this week a radio sampler goes out of some of the stereo remastered tracks, so if you know anybody in the biz, start buggin' em for a (burned) taste.
-
Also of note is the hype about to be generated by the media monsters for the Beatles CDs.
-
A two hour ABC TV special on Thanksgiving weekend as well as a three week national TV ad campaign, even hitting MLB and NBA broadcasts.
-
Plus for the really, truly, obssessed, 3 "Kollector's Krates," housed in mini-milk crates with your choice of Let it Be, Abbey Road, or Sgt. P, and each with a t-shirt, will be available.
-
Finally, not sure what kind of copy-guard that will be on these CDs-maybe none, who knows?-but nevertheless, I'd bet that most major retailers will receive their shipments during the Labor Day weekend, and so some copies will begin filtering out from then on, regardless of any dopey, useless, "embargos." (See Anthology DVD fiasco from 2003)
-
Yes, it's all too much.
