Beatlemania Remastered
The Beatles remastered catalogue went on sale today, drawing huge crowds to HMV’s London flagship store on Oxford Street and other stores including the band’s home town of Liverpool. Fourteen remastered Beatles albums have been released including all the legendary ban’s studio sets and Past Masters compilations of the rest of their music.
An HMV spokesperson said, ‘There’s a very good chance one of the albums could be number one at the end of the week, even with just four days’ sales.’
The release of the remastered CDs is the first time The Beatles’ catalogue has been issued in a new form since 1987.
