THE BEATLES REMASTERED BACK catalogue is due for release on September 9 - the same day the The Beatles: Rock Band video game is due to hit shelves.
Two new mini-featurettes which dip into the making of Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, are now available to view online via the band's official site and their new Amazon.com store.
Each new remastered album will feature the original UK artwork, expanded sleevenotes and rare photos. For a limited period, each CD will also be embedded with a brief documentary film about the making of the album. On the same date, two new Beatles box sets will also be released.
In addition to the 12 original Beatles albums and Magical Mystery Tour, Past Masters Vol. I and II (the 1988 B-side/alternate version compilations) have been collated into a single title. This is also the first time the Fab's first four LPs (Please Please Me, With The Beatles, A Hard Day's Night, Beatles For Sale) will be available in stereo CD format. These 14 albums, along with a DVD collection of the documentaries, will also be available for purchase together in a box set.
The Beatles in Mono, a second collection, will gather all of the band's recordings in their original mono mixes. It is set to feature 10 of the band's albums and a further two discs in the Past Masters mould. The mono Help! and Rubber Soul reissues will also include the original 1965 stereo mixes (not been previously released on CD). All will appear in mini-vinyl CD replicas complete with original sleeves, inserts and label designs.
