Just listening to this (it's officially released on Monday, but I found a copy early)
It's been re-mixed from the original multi track tapes by Giles Martin (George Martin's son) with the permission (and encouragement) of the surviving Beatles and the estates of John and George.
Conceived as the backing tracks for the Vegas Cirque du Soleil show at the Mirage, this takes around 30 tracks from the back catalogue and remixes them together (the vox from Within You Without You to the Backing Track of Tomorrow Never Knows, for example).
It sounds a little cheesy as a concept, bt it is stuningly well executed - I can see this being the most given Christmas Present all over the world this year.
Get yourself a copy.
Now.
What?
You're still here.
You should be on the way to the CD store.
Go.
GO!
