The White Album (Remastered)

The Beatles is, no doubt, one of the biggest musical phenomenons the world has ever seen. Having released records which have been proven to be largely influential on pop culture, The White Album, is no exception. Consisting of various genres such as reggae and experimental electronic, The Beatles showed how they had evolved from the previously pop and cheerful band to establishing their songwriting skills. While it may be said to be an incoherent record with songs written by different members of the band, each with different composing styles, The White Album is still a record that is strangely compelling. There is also something for everyone in this diversity of styles and moods set by the songs. It showcases the individual band member’s progress in their musical career.

This remastered version of The White Album seeks to bring back The Beatles,  the memories of their heydays and also to offer a better auditory experience with better sound quality as compared to original releases, whilst keeping the sounds authentic so that fans can still enjoy the good old songs. In addition, this remastered edition also includes detailed notes regarding the history of The Beatles and also the recording process of this album. Limited copies of the record will also contain short documentaries which consist of rare photographs, studio chat by the band which has never been heard and also old footage.

As a record that is touted as one of the greatest of all time, this will certainly be the perfect gift for lovers of 20th century pop music.
