I own mono and stereo US and UK copies of this record.

Probably five or six of each US variant, and at least one of each of the major UK variants.

I know this album.

I've never heard it like this.

I haven't been this excited about a beatles record since 2008 when I picked up a mono copy of Pepper and magical mystery tour at a used book store in Marietta, GA for $2 and listened to them for an entire weekend.

It's a real stereo mix.

Like, one that people actually spent time on.

It's amazing.

Maybe it's Eyesaline

@ajroach42 Giving it a listen, and these are sounding pretty damn good. The clarify and separation are astounding. Mono mixes are very indistinct & lacking treble in comparison -- though this could be more about mastering for vinyl, which doesn't have the range of digital.

Seems like they pumped up the loudness, which I don't love. And some songs (Taxman) have the bass too high in the mix IMO.
