We’ve been having The Beatles’ albums on CD. This time, EMI is bringing you a brilliant audio collection comprising the magical journey of the Fab Four with The Beatles Stereo Boxset distributed by PolyEast Records. This perfect gift is now exclusively available at all Odyssey outlets.

For the first time, their entire recorded output has been re-mastered for the 21st century, complete with unique liner notes and special digital packaging to boot. Plus, the boxset does include a bonus DVD featuring all of these short sequences together so you can enjoy it on your very own DVD player. You can also avail The Beatles Stereo Boxset in a limited edition 16G USB Flash Drive housed in a green aluminum apple which contains full contents of the Beatles Stereo Boxset; 13 mini-documentaries in MPEG 4 video format; and custom-designed Flash Player menu system with full booklet artwork, album cover wallpapers and photo gallery.

What you have here are the original British Beatles albums just like what had been released before; only now, listeners can enjoy the first four albums – “Please Please Me,” “With The Beatles,” “Hard Day’s Night,” “Beatles For Sale” – available in true stereo for the very first time. Combined with the remaining nine albums recorded by the group between 1965 and 1970, this is a masterpiece set, and a special treasure trove of timeless, classic songs that changed the entire structure of popular music as we know it today.

Each title also comes with a special CD booklet containing many unreleased photographs that represent the time each album was originally released, plus well-written liner notes (including the original notes from the first four albums). The “Yellow Submarine” booklet contains both the original UK and US back cover notes together for the very first time. And what a thrill it is to finally be able to have the photo/comic-strip booklet from “Magical Mystery Tour” that was initially issued in the American LP in 1967, in an official CD release for the very first time. The “White Album” packaging includes the original poster, in a CD sized reproduction, that features the photo collage on one side, and the album’s song-lyrics on the other side. This marks the second time that this poster was made available in a “White Album” CD release, following the 30th anniversary reissue from 1998.

“Love Me Do” (both versions), “P. S. I Love You,” “Only A Northern Song,” “She Loves You,” “I’ll Get You” and “You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)” are all represented in their original monaural mixes, whereas the remaining songs are all in true stereo. Even “I Am The Walrus” still has its original mix of half-stereo/half-duo phonic, just like the first time around.

And, the bonus DVD boasts a well-produced mini documentary. Each segment features audio comments from The Beatles themselves along with George Martin. This DVD gives a fascinating insight into why these classic albums have stood the test of time so well, and continues to be so popular, even into the 21st century.

Ringo Starr sang lead on this. He was a fan of Country music, and this became his showcase song.

The Beatles played this on their third live Ed Sullivan Show appearance. It gave Ringo a chance to sing on the show.

Recorded shortly after the filming of Help!, the lyrics are about appearing in movies. Ringo went on to act in many films, fulfilling what he sang about on this.

This was used as the B-side of “Yesterday.”

In 1989, Buck Owens re-recorded this as a duet with Ringo. (thanks, Bertrand – Paris, France)

The thing that really bothers me about people that bring down Ringo’s ability. In Anthology Paul says: “But when we first got Ringo into the band it really gelled. We played GOOD.” This means something, guys. Also Ringo once said about his drumming, which I think is appropriate: “The work is the joy. The results are just something you have to deal with. You resent the catcalls and don’t trust the ones who overpraise.”
- Tiffany, San Diego, CA

This is my fourth favorite Ringo tune. Not many people realize it, but Ringo’s vocals are pretty darn good.
- Steven, West Carrollton, OH

Ernie!! You are totally ripping off McCartney point of views and Ringo’s own interpretation of his drumming! If anybody reads McCartney’s memoir ‘Many Years From Now’, they will see that Ringo mentions that his drumming on ‘Rain’ was indeed in peak form there.
- Brian, Sydney, Canada

Rest In Peace, Buck Owens….
- Ross, St. Leo, MN

Yesterday is not an Beatles album, both of them (Yesterday and Act Naturally) are on HELP! Album
- Ricardo, Mexico, Mexico

Luna, don’t go overboard! Ringo was not as good as Mitch and Keith, but he is still very good adn deserves more credit then he gets.
- Johnny, Los Angeles, CA

There isn’t infinite room for every instrument on a particular song. With all the instrumentation of McCartney, Lennon and Harrison (Not to mention all the harmonies), it doesn’t leave alot of room for Ringo to bang on the drums like Mitchel or Moon. When he has too, he can and will very well, but he never felt the need to stand out. Might I add he is a much better singer than both of those other drummers.
- Robb, Hamburg, NY

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it looks as though they’re here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I’m not half the man I used to be,
There’s a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she had to go
I don’t know she wouldn’t say.
I said something wrong,
Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go
I don’t know she wouldn’t say.
I said something wrong,
Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.

I’ve just seen a face,
I can’t forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She’s just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see
We’ve met, mmm-mmm-mmm-m’mmm-mmm.
Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I’d have never been aware.
But as it is I’ll dream of her
Tonight, di-di-di-di’n'di.
Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.
I have never known
The like of this, I’ve been alone
And I have missed things
And kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite
Like this, di-di-di-di’n'di.
Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.
Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.
I’ve just seen a face,
I can’t forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She’s just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see
We’ve met, mmm-mmm-mmm-di’n'di
Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.
Oh, falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

If you let me take your heart I will prove to you,
We will never be apart if I’m part of you.
Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see.
It is no suprise now, what you see is me.
Big and black the clouds may be, time will pass away.
If you put your trust in me I’ll make bright your day.
Look into these eyes now, tell me what you see.
Don’t you realise now, what you see is me.
Tell me what you see.
Listen to me one more time, how can I get through?
Can’t you try to see that I’m trying to get to you?
Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see.
It is no suprise now, what you see is me.
Tell me what you see.
Listen to me one more time, how can I get through?
Can’t you try to see that I’m trying to get to you?
Open up your eyes now, tell me what you see.
It is no suprise now, what you see is me.

Though you’ve gone away this morning,
You’ll be back again tonight,
Telling me there’ll be no next time
If I don’t just don’t treat you right,
You’ll never leave me and you know it’s true,
’cause you like me too much and I like you.

You’ve tried before to leave me,
But you haven’t got the nerve
To walk out and make me lonely
Which is all that I deserve,

You’ll never leave me and you know it’s true,
’cause you like me too much and I like you.
I really do, and it’s nice when you believe me,
If you leave me

I will follow you
And bring you back where you belong
’cause I could’t really stand it,
I admit that I was wrong,
I wouldn’t let you leave me ’cause it’s true,
’cause you like me too much and I like you.

’cause you like me too much and I like you.
I really do, and it’s nice when you believe me,
If you leave me

I will follow you
and bring you back where you belong
’cause I could’t really stand it,
I admit that I was wrong,

I wouldn’t let you leave me ’cause it’s true,
’cause you like me too much and I like you,
’cause you like me too much and I like you.

I get high when I see you go by
My oh my.
When you sigh, my, my insides just fly,
Butterfly.
Why am I so shy when I’m beside you?

It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love, and that is all,
But it’s so hard loving you.

Is it right that you and I should fight
Every night?
Just the sight of you makes nighttime bright,
Very bright.
Haven’t I the right to make it up girl?

It’s only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It’s only love, and that is all
But it’s so hard loving you
Yes it’s so hard loving you — loving you.

They’re gonna put me in the movies
They’re gonna make a big star out of me
We’ll make a film about a man that’s sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally

Well, I’ll bet you I’m gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movies gonna make me a big star
‘Cause I can play the part so well

Well I hope you come and see me in the movies
Then I’ll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally

We’ll make the scene about a man that’s sad and lonely
And beggin down upon his bended knee
I’ll play the part but I won’t need rehearsin’
All I have to do is act naturally

Well, I’ll bet you I’m gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar you can never tell
The movies gonna make me a big star
‘Cause I can play the part so well

Well I hope you come and see me in the movies
Then I’ll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
