A cleaned up Star club release would be most welcome, but like you said probably not in 2024, but hopefully in the next couple of years. Other than that; Back on with the deluxe editions of The Beatles albums. They've been absolute gold so far! Here's to wish you and every other Beatles-fan a Happy New Year! Cheers!
Even a fan made Ai version of Star Club would be great. I get the impression the guys weren’t happy with their playing, hence the court cases. Good to know Jackson now, owns the tapes.
@@spaceengineer1452 Fan made Ai can be really excellent. Just listen to Pillow for your Head from the Get Back sessions. I have no doubt that similar results could be obtained from the Star Club tapes.
A few days ago The Beatles TH-cam channel released a short of Ringo reminiscing about Rubber Soul. I took that as being a bit of a hint about a possible coming deluxe edition
They put out a bunch of clips and shorts of the Beatles talking about different songs from the recent Red and Blue releases
I would love to see McCartneys Back To The Egg and London Town Archive Collections…
I would DEFINITELY love a new Macca album, but if we at least can get a Rubber Soul box, I would be more than happy.
If Paul would come out with a 4 cd set of unreleased, alternate and rare b sides I would pick it up pronto. I've heard most of his solo albums, except for 4 or 5,but haven't heard many of the aforementioned. I know there are people who've heard about everything he's ever done, which is amazing, but those people are never satisfied when an Archives Release appears, and I think if 2/3 of say a four cd set is at least solid, to interesting it will sell.
George's estate should release a full concert movie edition of "Live in Japan" on DVD. Now that would be something, it really would something!
would love that!
I guess Paul never thought much of “London Town” and “Back To The Egg”…☹️🤷🤷
And i would REALLY love a Deluxe box edition of George’s “33&1/3rd” album from 1976… but i know i’m in the minority..
No creo que seas una minoría... de hecho yo también la espero !
Thank you to Sean Lennon and all at the Lennon camp, not only for continuing the great Ultimate sets, but also for just confirming that it is indeed coming, and ending any further speculation from fans. I know plans can change ( see the STINYC set expected for ‘23) but I don’t know why other artists (especially the Beatles and solo camps) can’t do the same and just throw the fans a bone and say something like “yes so and so is being worked on for release this year” instead of treating everything like classified government secrets, and playing games in interviews such as every time the newest Beatles box set/remix is released and Giles is inevitably asked “will -insert album here- be released next year?” and he lies through his teeth saying something along the lines of “well we don’t really plan that far ahead”…sure they don’t…
But anyway, Paul and George please follow John’s lead and get back on the deluxe set train, and Ringo release all the eps you want but please at least give us a Apple years set …
@joedee9811 I totally agree.
Cheers for all your content this year! And all the best for 2024!!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Andrew. I'm hoping for London Town reissue and Rubber Soul. Happy New year to you and thanks for all the great videos in 2023!
A couple yts back Olivia and Dhani said they have alot of footage from the 1974 concerts, maybe they'll realise it.
Happy New Year Andrew and thank you for all the work you have put into these videos I have really enjoyed them.
Thanks Martyn, happy new year to you too!
Bringing in the new year with this video. Thanks, as ever, Andrew. Interesting thoughts and insights here. I’d welcome a retrospective too, ie what you predicted last year vs what we got!
Hope you had a great Christmas and Happy New Year 🎈! Thanks for starting the New Year on a great note with this info!
I think we can definitely call the Archive Series dead in the water now. Sadly, I think Macca’s team really dropped the ball over the last couple of releases, prioritising the ephemera over the music - and basically putting them out at a loss (or near-loss). The tombstone edition of Flaming Pie was the final straw - and one that must have lost them a considerable amount of money. I just wish they’d go back to the original format - nice book, remastered album, a few discs of extras - job done! (Get that lad Sean Lennon in as advisor - he seems to have got the balance dead right with his dad’s releases).
100% 👍
The archive series is very odd in terms of what has happened. I, also, think that maybe a return to the book format at a reasonable cost would be the way forward. Some of the recent releases have, I believe, overstepped what the market wants and can support. The Band On The Run release has somewhat muddied the water. I think formst that may be a little too extreme a reduction, but that is perhaps because we have already had an Archive edition of that album. The problem with the above suggestion is that work has perhaps been in an advanced state for some time now for London Town and Back To The Egg and maybe moving them to less extensive formats may be difficult. Hopefully some of the mult-format nonsense can be curtailed. I don't think that really showed Paul in a good light. As Andrew's video does demonstrate, there is a lot of potential for 2024. I'm hopeful for a more considered schedule of releases. I think 2023 was a little messy and did not really hang together in the way Beatles' projects usually do. That said there are a lot of plusses too. The potential of MAL and a good friend in Peter Jackson is positive. Fingers crossed for a return to a more considered set of releases in 2024 and beyond.
And thanks for the continued bulletins Andrew. Always enjoyable and well considered. Keep up the good work.
Always look forward to a new video thanks Andrew and have a fab 2024!
Hey Andrew, Fantastic video!!! Here is to a Beatle filled new Year!! I Wish for you and yours a Happy and Healthy New Year!!!!!
It could be an expensive year but an interesting one. Thanks for all your videos during 2023 Andrew. All the best for 2024.
I'm looking forward to the Mind Games release. Thank you Andrew for yet another interesting video and all best wishes for the new year.
A very happy new year to you and yours Andrew, let's just hope that 2024 turns out to be a better year for not just ourselves but for the entire world, after all this entire planet deserves a break. Many thanks for this video, as you have looked towards what we can hope to expect in the coming year. I personally think that Covid put the Kibosh on anniversary releases time wise, after all we were completely locked down for more than six months. What I would love to see is Shea Stadium released on LP/CD and DVD/Blu Ray. There is a print of this film that was shown in cinemas alongside Eight Days A Week back in Sept of '16, so a freshen up of the film is possible, and I for one would welcome it. I hope I'm wrong but I get a feeling that the McCartney Archive series may be dead in the water now, as you say it's been five years since flaming pie. But I really do hope to be proved wrong. (Really want to see the series continue with Back To The Egg and London Town) Would be nice to see something by The Fabs issued for Record Store Day in April of '24, but not something with a million variants, not really a fan of that stuff. Overall I'll just be pleased to have some new releases to listen to and enjoy. Again t you my friend and to all my fellow subscribers Happy New Year...
There are some great releases on the way ,rubber soul please happy new year Andrew to you and your family .🍾
Thank you Andrew for these tantalizing prospects. I'm looking forward to (Lennon-related certainties aside) more Macca Archives, a new album, something interesting from the Harrison camp, more EPs from Ringo- specially the country music one. And of course a Rubber Soul box. Plus volumes 2 of the books mentioned at the start of the video. But maybe I'm a bit greedy here. Have a great New Year.
We definitely need a Magical Mystery Tour box set!!!!
Would there be enough material to warrant that? I mean, it is really just half an album with some singles tacked on. There might be a handful of releasable outtakes. Could work if they combined it with Yellow Submarine, though.
Happy New Year Andrew! #1 should be the archive boxes of London Town and Back to the Egg! Shocked that there was no “Ringo” album 50th anniversary box last year. A truly shocking lack of action on that!
Happy new year Andrew! I've decided to stop obsessing over the LT/BTTE archive and just enjoy whatever Paul decides to give us. I want to focus more on the fact that we are both here gazing at the same moon. My childhood hero is still here giving it his best! Anything he does will delight me - but 70s material is what I hope for the most.
Why do so many people feel the need to communicate through puzzles? What is LT/BTTE supposed to mean? Just say (write) it!
@@andyallan2909 London town .. back to the egg
Thank you Andrew, always enjoy your predictions ! Hope you and your family have a great New Year.
Thanks Sharon, same to you!
Happy New Year to you and your family. Looking forward to the BOTR 50th, Rubber Soul SE, and Mind Games SE. HOPEFULLY LT AND BTTE ACs. Thanks for all these phenomenal videos
Happy new year!
As always it´s a delight to see these "what´s likely coming" videos by you Andrew, thanks for that. I think 2023 was not a bad year, but nothing from the Harrison Camp and no more Archive Edition Releases are still a big disappointment. So my first hope is that Paul will at least finish the Archive Edition Gaps of the Wings; I do not hope that there will be Archive Edition Releases of "Press to Play" and "Off The Ground". Then I would love more things coming from the Harrison Camp. Your suggestion that Living in the material world is just a bit late is most welcome. After all most hidden treasures are to find in the GH discography. And then I have the wish to see more videos by you Andrew, but that´s just my personal opinion ;) have a good new year everyone
Its so good to be a Beatles fan. Happy new year.
Happy 2024 Andrew! I'd love to see a Concert for Bangladesh box set this year. I think the film and album were last reissued/remixed back in 2005 so it certainly could benefit a little polish. Hope you had a lovely holiday season!
My #1 wish out of all the possibilities you mentioned would be another McCartney archive collection of any album. Though you didn't mention it in this video, I would also love a Super Deluxe set of Magical Mystery Tour and/or Yellow Submarine, or even a "Past Masters" Super Deluxe set. (The early albums would be great as well).
Thank you Andrew. I wish they would speed up the releases of the Beatles catalog while Paul and Ringo are still around to give their approval . They could easily do 2 releases a year. Happy New Year.
Thanks for all the info -- can't wait for the next edition of the McCartney books and lots of great music.
Great views and terrific if we get some of them. Dont forget the Paul photo exhibition coming to scotland sone time although no date yet. Happy New Year to you and your ever expanding family!
Happy New Year Andrew!! - Alway nice to see your videos
Happy new year!
Hi mate,
All the best to you and your family in 2024.
Take care
Thank you Andrew, Happy New Year my friend, always great nutrition to hear your insight for what probably will come in the near future or maybe not but that's OK , if they want it to make it official I assume they will wait until autumn 2025 before they give us Rubber Soul remixed (60th anniversary) just in time for Christmas '25 until then i guess as you mentioned they will come up with their own 60th in 2024 for whatever it is that they think is Beatle worthy .. in any case it doesn't matter I can wait another year for Rubber Soul to come out (still love the 2009 remastered) .. take care Andrew.
Really interesting video Andrew, let’s hope at least some of those unconfirmed suggestions happen, I’d love a ‘clean’ copy of the Star Club album. Wishing you all the best and a very happy new year.
Thanks Peter, same to you!
Any curiosity I had towards the underdubbed Band on the Run was seriously diminished after hearing the title track. While some albums benefit from a stripped-back mix, there was simply too much missing to make it a satisfying experience. Perhaps some of the other tracks will sound better when underdubbed, but this isn’t an automatic buy for me.
Always a great annual video. Thanks, Andrew.
Thanks Andrew for you're video. Happy New Year.
Same to you!
Excellent review of possibilities, thank you! I hadn’t know Jackson bought the Star Club tapes - very exciting!
Happy New Year, Mr. Dixon!
I''m hoping that Help! Gets the full box release treatment. Very soon.
I would really like the 1974 dark horse tour film. happy new year Andrew
Happy New Year to you and your family. Best wishes for 2024.
Same to you!
Good discussion as always, thank you.
I really want "London Town" and "Back to the Egg" archives, which if he doesn't do it is a crime. Both albums are very underrated, and well due a reassessment.
Hi Andrew , thank you for theses tantalising prospects of releases for 2024 . I’m very much looking forward to the ultimate deluxe edition of John Lennon mind games coming out in June & the mind games book , that should be an interesting read . It would be absolutely great if Ringo did agree to release an ultimate deluxe edition of Ringo , but I doubt that it will happen, but I hope I’m wrong. I would love it if there was a Paul McCartney archive collection releases , I’m particularly keen on London Town & Back to the Egg Archive Collection’s been released . It would be also be great if there was an off the ground archive collection , press to play , a vinyl release of Chaos and Creation in the Backyard , a vinyl release of Run devil run etc.
Regarding the Beatles , Rubber soul now that would be great , and maybe other Beatles related releases during 2024 . Anyway a happy new year to you Andrew I hope 2024 is a good year for you . Ps I would love a vinyl release of The Concert for Bangladesh on Apple Records , like it was originally released on .
Dear God…we NEED to FINALLY get those London Town and Back To The Egg archives!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR ANDREW. ERRP OH NO IM STANDIN ON MY HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy new year Mr. Dixon
I’am really looking forward to the Mind Games deluxe box set, and I also hope that we get Sometime in New York City
Now from The Beatles I really hope that we get Rubber Soul and the star club tapes
Another great video Andrew! Fingers crossed for your predictions! 🤞
All the best for 2024 !
I would love a remix of Rock and Roll album!! I always thought there is a classic buried in it, again great rehearsal tapes!!
I wonder if film of The Elton John Concert can be restored? Or the film taken at Double Fantasy sessions?
Great news on *Mind Games*. Happy days. 🎧🎵🎶✌️
Great video, a Happy New Year to you Andrew! 🥂
Am I alone in my hope for a gloriously restored 'One Hand Clapping' film from Peter Jackson? 😅 With all the 'backyard' content and everything? Imagine that miraculous version of 'Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five' looking sharp and perfect!
That would be fun and unexpected! Happy New Year to you.
Happy new year Andrew or late new year I might say I don’t know what it’s like over there in England but I think the rubber soul deluxe box that could be remixed definitely.
Happy new year!
brilliant video!!
I would really like the cleaned up demo of Now & Then on spotify!!!
I wished Ringo would release the Ringo album box set. I bought that album back in 73 when I was 12, and it's still so enjoyable to listen to. I'm sure there are some great outtakes from that album as well as maybe some chatting between John, George, and Ringo?
As far as George's albums, why can't Olivia and Dhani do an Archive Collection for each album like Paul? But make it affordable. I understand some of your viewers say, "No one is forcing you to buy it." But probably all your viewers like myself are not only Beatles fans, we are ex-Beatles fans as well. Not all of us have a pocket full of money to buy some of these releases, but we want the outtakes and demos. Yes, I know there are the people who buy it, just to turn around and sell it on eBay. But most of us are diehard fans. So, Olivia and Dhani, if you are reading this...😊
I'm definitely hoping for the Rubber Soul remix, which I had my heart set on last year! As for the McCartney Archive Collection, I wish they'd at least tell us whether it's going to continue or not. I'll just add my voice to the chorus of those hoping it does.
I have already done my own voice centered stereo remixes of Rubber Soul and Please Please Me, but for my own purpose only, by dragging the file of each track on to a particular track onto a website called Vocal Remover And Isolation, to separate the vocals, drums, and bass from the rest, which is in a fourth stem, dragging all four stems onto my Audacity mixing desk, and pressing the mono button on the Vocal stem to bring the vocals into the center, and on some tracks, pushing the drums further still into one channel, and out comes a voice centered stereo. Then I download that mix. I got a much clearer sound than on some of those tracks that they included on that Red Album, where there was a heck of a lot of unnecessary reverb and distortion. But on a few tracks on Rubber Soul where you get backing vocals coming out of the opposite channel from the lead vocals, to keep the backing vocals in one channel, I dragged the whole track file onto my Audacity first, pushed the slide control over to one side and download the sounds of that channel, and then push the slide control over to the other side and download all the sounds of that channel so you get two files, one file containing the sounds from one channel but with the sounds of that channel still coming out of one channel only, the other file containing the sounds from the other channel, but with the sounds of that channel still coming out of the other channel only. The file containing the lead vocals, I then drag onto the VRAI website to split into four individual stem files, so I then have a total of 5 files. I then drag all 5 files onto my Audacity mixing desk, and I then press the mono button on the file with the lead vocals to bring them into the center, and then I download the whole mix.
Really enjoy the channel. Always wondered what CD boxsets/books you have on the tall shelves behind you. Any chance of a video giving us an overview?
Thanks, good idea!
Happy New Year Andrew, just recently subscribed to your excellent channel. Binged watched loads of your videos. Loved your top Oasis tunes vid. Any chance you could do a Radiohead one ? Treated myself to the Sgt Peppers Deluxe Box Set for Christmas. My dad passed away in September in hospital and I played him his favourite Beatles/Harry Nilsson/Stranglers songs. Gutted he didn't get to hear Now and Then, he would have loved it. As you can probably tell I'm a huge Spaced fan......any chance you could say "AWW YEAH I HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT ! "
Thanks Andrew, I’m hoping for the Rubber Soul Boxset, and I’d like to hear about a MMT boxset with a proper remix of Walrus.
Hi Andrew, Happy New Year. Just a couple of thoughts. IF (and, as you imply, possibly a big IF) the Star Club tapes can be commercially restored, I'm wondering how much pre-62 footage Pete Best holds to visually augment such a package. On 'Rubber Soul' - I still think it makes more sense for it to be held over for release in 2025, being its 60th anniversary.
love to see a updated documentary on paul wingspan which came out in 2001 was truly fab
Hi Andrew, I have quite a few Beatles super deluxe box sets ( in fact all of them except Sgt Pepper) plus Ram , Red rose speedway and Flowers in the dirt. Lately however I’ve started rethinking whether I want essentially the same album again but with stuff I don’t really need.
Happy New Year Andrew,I,m hoping for a new album by Paul of new material . I hope this disc is black in colour and limited to one variation.! Some hope 30 different colours await !
Thanks for your outlook on 2024! Fingers crossed for a new McCartney album and new Archive editions.
I saw on the website of the official Dutch Beatles music provider (from Universal Music) the Anthology CDs carrying a preorder label. When you click on it, you can only order the 90s versions though. That's odd, right?
Not sure what's happening there, unless some more have been printed just to keep them available. It's not even unheard of for a stack of product to be unexpectedly found in a warehouse which then go on sale.
When you leaned forward and said, "What about the Archive Collection???", you frightened me. ; )
Hi Andrew, Great to have you back on our screens.
1.Does anyone know is Luca Perasi's new book different enough from his previous book ‘Recording Sessions (1969 -2013’). If anyone has read both, could they let me know. I would very much appreciate it. I initially thought it one and the same. Stupidity and my brain work as one!
2. Keep the honest commentary coming Andrew. It makes your posts so more engaging and informative. You are not negative or anything like that, rather simply truthful. Ringo does charge full album price for his eps, and I think that is unethical, but it seems in the U.S. particularly no person ever agrees with me. The old chestnut 'you don't have to buy it' line is always thrown at me. Do people consider maybe fans of the ex-Beatles may not be loaded up with cash so it becomes not a choice for them.
3. I think I'll be archived before the next archive release. Someone said very recently that's it's been five years so stop talking about it. I thought contrary to that. As it's been five years - what's happening? Many coloured vinyl collectors have been satisfied with the McCartney 3 marketing manipulation, but I would rather have new music any day or another archive release. It's not as if McCartney is short for material. Back to the Egg already has the near hour-long video special that was aired upon release and many rough remixes exist and probably even more we are unaware of. There is the concert footage including live performances of Goodnight Tonight and the first televised performance of Coming Up. The footage of the making of Mull of Kintyre, studio footage rehearsing Coming Up and With a Little Luck. There is so much stuff he can draw upon. And how about a tribute to Denny Lane on the last Wings album. That would be so apt, kind and truly something we would all love to see and could include insights from Paul on the collaborations?
4.This year has certainly had it's trying moments with wars and conflict still dominate. When will us humans ever learn. Nevertheless, I wish Andrew and all his wonderful subscribers a peaceful and happy 2024. May it bring much joy and hopefully maybe a deluxe archive! All the best folks.
I'm hoping for another McCartney III release; maybe in coloured vinyl! 😀
😯. 😄
Thank you, very helpful. I note no physical timeline of potential release dates this year?
It helps me to keep a limit on just how wrong I might end up being! 😉
There’s a rumour of a Cloud Nine super deluxe boxset coming and a documentary of Georges Darkhorse tour of the US and Canada.
Considering a good chunk of Rubber Soul was already remixed for the 2023 Red Album, it wouldn’t be out of the question for them to remake the other half.
I really am looking forward to hearing other possible outtakes from the Rubber Soul sessions.
Also controversial opinion, I wish Apple wouldn’t limit themselves to the number of songs on CD versions by making the track list the same as the vinyl release. Most of the SDE releases cap the length to 40-50 minutes when they could easily fit up to 70-80 minutes of music on the CD version.
The Vinyl releases should feature highlights of the Super Deluxe Edition.
Unless they were to add more outtakes onto an expanded and remixed version of Anthology 1-3.
Looking forward to hear what comes out of the Lennon and Harrison camps. Yes a new McCartney Solo would be awesome! I Loved McCartney 3👍🏻.
`Memory Almost Full` double black vinyl is still top of my wants list.
Great video as ever Andrew. I honestly believe Apple need to be concentrating on the emerging generations rather than re-releasing vinyl albums with quirky outtakes . In my opinion the red and blue was bought by collectors only; not by Beatles fans per se and certainly not by new fans getting into the Beatles (although they are perfect for that market). The marketing by Apple for the Red and Blue albums was utterly dismal hence they came and disappeared quickly. I fear that for the first time in 60 years the Beatles are becoming irrelevant to the younger generations who in many cases are oblivious to them. A new Ringo "country flavoured" EP isn't going to really help.
I think a long term benefit of the new red and blue will be the inclusion of those tracks in streaming playlists, which will help anyone who wants to give The Beatles a chance. But certainly they do need to remain relevant and in the public eye for new generations to have an inclination to do that 👍
Most acts (if not all) sell their 'wares' with their fans in mind. Why would you expect Apple not to have Beatles fans in mind and be concentrating on music from the acts of 'emerging generations?' Makes no sense. I may be wrong, but I don't think Apple have any acts from 'emerging generations.'
@andyallan2909 Hi Andy, I would agree with you 100% if we were talking about Kajagoogoo. The Beatles are a marketable commodity, and strategic development will be at the forefront of Apples business plan. The 1 album worked a treat. The point I was making is that the Red and Blue re-releases didn't.
It's maybe no surprise that the Revolver (including the picture disc) and Let It Be (not including the picture disc) remix albums are reduced in HMV's current sale. But is it significant that A Hard Day's Night, Beatles For Sale, Help!, and Yellow Submarine are all included at £19.99 and Magical Mystery Tour is £29.99? Nothing else is included in the sale. Do they know something? It's maybe heartening that Red and Blue haven't been reduced yet (HMV have had the red and blue vinyl versions for a month or so now).
Red & Blue vinyl sets are advertised elsewhere circa £65 ish down from £73.
Happy New Year Andrew……..
Same to you!
Thx for this lovely chat about the fab 4.
A highlight for me was definitely this Legacy book about McCartney. And I want to thank you for talking about this one in your vlogs. Was surely the incentive to buy/read it!
Goals for 2024? I will purchase the Lyrics book about all the McCartney songs. And read Tune in!! Can’t wait.
Quick question….can you explain the difference in the upcoming remix of Band on rhe run and its Archive collection release?
Have a good and healthy 2024, many kind regards from the Netherlands. (I come from the city where John Lennon allegedly stole a harmonica.)🎼
Another great video, Andrew. I don't see any reason why Apple can't come out with the Rubber Soul remix set by the middle of the year, and Help! before the end of the year. In spite of all the touring, The Beatles often came out with two albums a year. So stop dragging your feet Apple, and get moving.
I wouldn’t be surprised if rubber soul comes out next year as it is the 60th anniversary of rubber soul in 2025. I expect a re-release of 1 this year, whether it be them sticking Now and then on the end or a full blown remix of the album I expect it
I know it’s too recent an album, but I would love to get an Archive Collection of Chaos and Creation in the Backyard. I think that is one of his best albums ever and I would love to hear some cool outtakes.
On top of the Mind Games set, I'd love to hear any news on the Some Time In New York City set confirmed a couple of years ago. I doubt they'd release two Lennon sets in one year, but I would at least like the release to be reconfirmed (they seem to be good at giving confirmation well in advance of releases). In terms of releases for Lennon, I'd love to see the first ever reissue of Live In New York City, perhaps a 2CD version covering both shows. I believe Gimme Some Truth contained the Ultimate Mix of the other performance of Come Together, so the tapes are available and have been worked on fairly recently. I think it would make a lot of sense to release it to publicise a Some Time In New York City set next year (perhaps even a HD release of the film).
I think the Archive Collection is dead. I don't think that there is any way we could have gone this long without another entry if they planned to keep it going (perhaps if there were only a couple of albums left, but that isn't the case). As long as we don't get a repeat of the McCartney 3 reissue issue, I'll be happy with what's we get for McCartney.
In terms of The Beatles, I'd prefer a Magical Mystery Tour set over Rubber Soul, if only to save my wallet, but given the remixes on the Red album, I think Rubber Soul is a sure bet for the upcoming year.
Any chance of a new box set of Beatles on re mixed mal recordings, from please please me onwards?
The one thing I would REALLY love them to release is my coloured vinyl box set of the red and blue albums which I pre-ordered, they failed to send me and now can't tell me when it will be shipped.
I think if they are going to do a Rubber Soul box set, it might be better to leave it for next year as it'll be the the 60th anniversary. However, they've already done half of the album for the Red album so it'd be the project that would require the least amount of work to finish off.
For this year, it's the 60th anniversary of A Hard Day's Night and the DVDs are getting pretty scarce so I'd say there is going to be some kind of new release with that film, possibly a 4K remaster. There's also the album but I don't know if we'll see that this year, same goes for Beatles For Sale. If they do A Hard Day's Night this year then Help! might get the same treatment next year.
I'm glad I got to see the Star Club tapes in person earlier this year before Peter Jackson bought them. They were on display at the Liverpool Beatles Museum (the far superior experience compared to the more well known Beatles Story). I hope Peter Jackson is able to do something with them as the performances are great and there's a lot of songs that it'd be great to hear higher quality versions of. That's going to be a big project though so I wouldn't expect to see the full thing released this year, maybe early next year or perhaps they'd hold off on it until the 70th anniversary in 2032 (by which point Paul and Ringo will be in their 90s).
George's estate is facing a similar situation to what they had years ago in that almost all of his albums are either out of print or hard to get. I hope they can get them all back out there again. The All Things Must Pass super deluxe set was a great start, although it looks like that may also be out of print now sadly. But the rest of his back catalogue has really suffered. I was hopeful that they'd do similar sets for the rest of his albums. There's also the unfinished recordings he left behind. At the time of his death, he said he had 3 albums in various stages of completion. One was Brainwash, one was a covers album focusing mostly on rockabilly (especially Carl Perkins) songs (he may also have recorded a cover of "Ballad Of A Thin Man" by Bob Dylan), then there's the mysterious 3rd album which may have been the project he referred to as "Portrait Of A Leg End/Portrait Of A Bootleg" which would cover all of the unreleased and rare songs he recorded during his solo career. We also never got Early Takes Vol 2 so that's something else we might hopefully eventually see. Dhani has been busy with his own music most of last year so maybe this year he will find time to work on his dad's stuff.
Great video. I am with you an archive release is number one on my wish list. He did hint or tease a new collection in the tour book last year when he was in the states. Maybe?? What do you think about a possible tour of at least Europe maybe the states? I also think we will get a Living in the Material World set. I think Bangladesh has too many legal fixes with artists to come out. I am hoping for a busier 24 which will put you to work even more
George Harrison rarities vol 2 would be great!
Enjoyed your video. Any word on MMT? I'd love to see a box set which includes an atmos blu-ray along with the movie.
Not heard anything. Would love it to happen
frohes neues ! bin der meinung ,das alles schon fertig im safe liegt! MAN WARTET nur auf den richtigen moment !! ( verkaufsstrategie).
The Mono box on vinyl should be reissue ( again ) with the original mono masters .
And if they are time ( and money 😅 ) London Town , I’ve have enough for this long wait .
Happy New Year.
At worst for me Paul should put out 2 CD versions of every album that hasn't had an Archive Collection release, and the vinyl equivalent too! I think it is criminal that they're not readily available to buy other than the inflated priced previous versions. I'm fortunate to be old enough to have bought Paul's post Beatles music in real time from 1975 onwards, but younger fans are being denied the opportunity to buy this music and that is a disaster in my eyes and very short sighted. I know there's youtube and streaming services but they should go hand in hand, pun intended with physical and updated versions of his post Beatle catalogue. I myself stopped buying CDs around the start of the pandemic and started to buy High Resolution Downloads, but as the physical releases are put out so are the hi res versions so i want up to date McCartney Archive releases with improved sound quality and extra tracks.
I would love to see all analog versions of the original Beatles albums. The cost for these records on the secondary market is totally crazy. Joe
What turntable , do you use?

I still haven't read the recent Philip Norman book on George Harrison:"George Harrison,The Reluctant Beatle",which I've had for a couple of months,but it's on the agenda these holidays.
I've recently bought a book by Doug Wolfberg on The Beatles,"Fab,But True",which I'd somehow missed earlier.It's well worth a read.
Philip Norman is to be avoided.
I have already done my own voice centered stereo remixes of Rubber Soul and Please Please Me, but for my own purpose only, by dragging the file of each track on to a particular track onto a website called Vocal Remover And Isolation, to separate the vocals, drums, and bass from the rest, which is in a fourth stem, dragging all four stems onto my Audacity mixing desk, and pressing the mono button on the Vocal stem to bring the vocals into the center, and on some tracks, pushing the drums further still into one channel, and out comes a voice centered stereo. Then I download that mix. I got a much clearer sound than on some of those tracks that they included on that Red Album, where there was a heck of a lot of unnecessary reverb and distortion. But on a few tracks on Rubber Soul where you get backing vocals coming out of the opposite channel from the lead vocals, to keep the backing vocals in one channel, I dragged the whole track file onto my Audacity first, pushed the slide control over to one side and download the sounds of that channel, and then push the slide control over to the other side and download all the sounds of that channel so you get two files, one file containing the sounds from one channel but with the sounds of that channel still coming out of one channel only, the other file containing the sounds from the other channel, but with the sounds of that channel still coming out of the other channel only. The file containing the lead vocals, I then drag onto the VRAI website to split into four individual stem files, so I then have a total of 5 files. I then drag all 5 files onto my Audacity mixing desk, and I then press the mono button on the file with the lead vocals to bring them into the center, and then I download the whole mix.
I sometimes use the LaLaLai website to separate other instruments. But I have done hundreds of mono to stereo conversions as a result.
That is all the people at the EMI studios including Giles Martin ever do. But they very likely use poorer quality websites. It is impossible to believe judging by their sound quality, that they have special equipment for doing this, which somebody from another TH-cam channel described to me as more advanced technology, when his word ADVANCED should have been in inverted commas.
I have the same wishes as i did the last year; from Macca Unplugged and Run Devil Run on vinyl added with Beaucoups Of Blues on vinyl from Ringo.

I believe there is an updated version of 'Recording The Beatles' by Brian Kehew coming this year. He did mention it at the Abbey Road Studios lecture back in August.
If it was me (which it isn't) I would release box seats for 1963, 1964, 1965 and remainder of 1967/8 all of which would have albums, singles EP's etc in remixed Stereo and Mono transfers for each year but NOT outtakes. Then the Anthologies would be expanded to include outtakes from the above years, but any that already appear on previous box sets would be removed, these sets would finish with Beatles' Movie Medley, Free As A Bird and Real Love. The main release of Anthology would just be a double CD/Album with the main tracks as I don't think the general public would by the Anthology's in the current/new forms.
The re-issue / remix of "Rubber Soul" isn't going to have the impact now that it should have had. Eight of the 14 tracks have already had remixes - that's counting "Think For Yourself", which Peter Cobbin did an excellent remix of in 1999.
Fantastic show thanks for all your knowledge and keeping us informed here's something I like to see Remember McCartney years in that set they have volume one two and three it would be nice to have the second one four five and six he has plenty of material what's your thoughts thank you Bill Swanson
Thanks Bill, do you mean the McCartney Years DVD set with the singles videos in?
@@AndrewDixonMusic yes
Also how about volume 2 pure McCartney
