The beatles white album is released in mono on 180 gram vinyl with faithfully replicated artwork newly mastered from the analogue master tapes.
The white album mono vinyl.
Working in the same room at abbey road where most of the beatles albums were initially cut the pair first dedicated weeks to concentrated listening fastidiously comparing the master tapes with first pressings of the mono records made in the 1960s using a rigorously tested studer a80 machine to play back the precious tapes the new vinyl was cut on a 1980s era vms80 lathe.
The vinyl album package replicates the original materials distributed with the album.
The mono white album has remained out of print on vinyl since then.
Ever on any format for those of us who think this is the greatest album of all time and i think there s quite a few of us it was very exciting to finally get to hear this mix.
The white album is the only one of those 10 albums that was never released in mono on vinyl in the u s.
A wonderful recreation of the original release of the white album complete with embossed name and individual serial number on the cover and the four individual color portraits and the poster with lyrics on the reverse side.
Obviously the beatles white album is a classic even more so on vinyl in the original mono format.
The vinyl pressing is very quiet and the mono mix has an intimate feel that is missing from the more familiar stereo mix.
I would recommend this to a friend.
