Well, I might put this one Into my 'favourite albums' list, because a book (or a box, in this case) of 7" (or 10" them days...😉) singles surely is the most original album format of them all. And what a great album this is!!! This might be me bitching, but the book gave me 0 new information and was not really inviting. I wish they had photos of those singles masters, and some other facts about the cutting or the singles itself.

Catalogue numbers and release dates per Harry Castleman and Walter J. Podrazik's All Together Now, [17] Nicholas Schaffner's The Beatles Forever, [18] and Keith Badman's The Beatles Diary Volume 2. [1] Single A-side(s)Wondered if I really needed these when I already own the red & the blue ones?!? Yes, certainly. One 7" is slightly warped (We Can Work It Out / Day Tripper), but this dies Not affect the Sound which is great throughout. About those complaining: these are 7" singles, therefore offering the sound quality of an LP near the runout grove... we knew this??? And still, especially the tunes created in the second half of the sixties, they sound amazing, Strawberry Fields for example... Each replica sleeve is unlaminated and contains a polylined die cut white paper inner. Lady Madonna is in a gatefold sleeve. My collection is Mint, only one of the records was ever played, and that was to assess the sonic quality of the music. Regarding that aspect, I’ll certainly say that the one record I played for comparison sounded far better than the actual Beatles’ single from the era, meaning some time and effort was taken with the recording and pressing. SQ// I know these are not audiophile records, but they all sound great. If you want the best sound, grab the Mono Masters LP and the original singles for BOJ&Y/Something. I personally prefer a lot of these as opposed to the UK singles, as these are clean and not as worn out as the UK singles are (usually). I definitely liked the Let it Be single, as i heard Macca breathing into the mic.
