We Love the Beatles Mash-Up!

This was completely unexpected to me! I did actually not know that there was going to be a new Beatles album coming out now (embarrased). Ok, so when it came I thought: "Another best-of.... Booooring!". But wait a minute! This is so much more than that! First of all, it's a mash up! They've taken origianal demo tapes and reworked them, so for example Strawberry Fields Forever is in a completely different version than what we're normally familiar with. "Love" is produced by the original The Betales producer: Sir George Martin, and his son Giles, and came about after a they were requested to produce music for the highly successful Cirque du Soleil show, a co-production with Apple Corps featuring the music of the Beatles, currently wowing audiences in Las Vegas.

In creating the music for the show and for the album, George and Giles have created a continuous "soundscape"--a series of well-known Beatles songs augmented by additional instrumentation and vocals taken from their vast bank of original multi-track tapes.

Additionally, the is the only fully digital The Beatles production.

Once again the Liverpool 5 proves their worth. This is a gem for new and old fans alike.
