The Beatles in Stereo Vinyl Box Set

The Beatles / Stereo Vinyl Remasters box set
The Beatles Stereo Vinyl Remasters box is limited to 50,000 copies worldwide and comes with an exclusive 252-page 12″x12″ hard back book

It looked like the Magical Mystery Tour Blu-ray box set would be our fill of Beatles reissues for late 2012, but the exciting news is that three years on from the 2009 release of the highly acclaimed remastered CDs, Apple/EMI have today finally announced that the Stereo VINYL remasters will be released on 12 November 2012 (13 Nov in the US).

All records will be pressed on 180-gram, audiophile quality vinyl with replicated artwork, and the 14 albums return to their original glory with details including the poster in The White Album, the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Club Band’s cut-outs, and special inner bags for some of the titles.

Each album will be available individually, but also available will be a lavish boxed edition which is limited to 50,000 copies worldwide. This box set will contain a massive 252-page hardbound book, unavailable elsewhere.
