Re: Revolver (Original Monaural Recording Series)
My notes show this series was done in 2004 by the same folks who did the Millennium Remasters releases. I'm not sure of the source of that info.

Definitely the Millennium Remasters Original Monaural Recordings. Their note about this set, “The sound work is not our own, but comes from an exclusive set of mono cd’s that came out of Japan (originals were housed in mock reel-to-reel boxes). The original sound sources are supposedly from safety copy tapes made by TOSHIBA EMI in the early 80’s when they first put out the ORIGINAL MONO RECORDINGS on red vinyl.”

So do we actually NEED copies of Japanese safety tapes when we actually have digital copies of the real EMI mono masters, both from digital sources (2009 mono box and Super Deluxe releases) as well as digital transfers of the new mono LP's cut from them? If these are Japanese safety copies they are two gens down from the original mono masters.

We needed them in 2004 but maybe not so much any more.Norm Deplume wrote: ↑Mon Nov 14, 2022 12:34 am So do we actually NEED copies of Japanese safety tapes when we actually have digital copies of the real EMI mono masters, both from digital sources (2009 mono box and Super Deluxe releases) as well as digital transfers of the new mono LP's cut from them?

Re: Revolver (Original Monaural Recording Series)
Well Revolver and White album we have an 'original mono master' from the respective SDEs. But we don't have the same for the others do we? The 2009 mono releases aren't the 'original' mastering...they are described as remastered after all.cliftdean74 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 15, 2022 3:04 pmWe needed them in 2004 but maybe not so much any more.Norm Deplume wrote: ↑Mon Nov 14, 2022 12:34 am So do we actually NEED copies of Japanese safety tapes when we actually have digital copies of the real EMI mono masters, both from digital sources (2009 mono box and Super Deluxe releases) as well as digital transfers of the new mono LP's cut from them?
