We all know how big a Beatles fan I am, so it's natural that you will all take this with a grain of salt, but :

Beatles music, in every form, is fantastic.

The newest Beatles related release is called Love. It's a 26 song album of mashups and alterations created by producer Sir George Martin using the masters in the Abbey Road studios. Beyond the fact that the quality of the sound is far superior to what can be found in current Beatles CDs, the album has quite a bit of fantastic pieces put together or laced over one another that blend perfectly into the next track. My favorite so far (having listened to about half of it) is the mashup of Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!, I Want You (She's So Heavy) and Helter Skelter. The first half is all remastered Mr. Kite but at 1:50 it kicks into this sound mess dominated by the ending piece of Mr. Kite, the descending piece of I Want You looped and a slowed down Helter Skelter in the back somewhere. It's amazing.



I recommend you steal/buy it, it's definitely worth a listen (even if you're not a seasoned Beatle listener)
