Standard vinyl LP pressing. Digitally remixed 50th Anniversary edition of The Beatles' musical masterpiece. This Abbey Road release features the new stereo album mix, sourced directly from the original eight-track session tapes. To produce the mix, Giles Martin working with Sam Okell, was guided by the album's original stereo mix supervised by his father, George Martin. It is time to experience Abbey Road again!

the Beatles final & in my opinion finest album
The 50th anniversary edition of the Beatles final & in my opinion finest album. The extra songs on the SuperDeluxe editions are just a wonderful insight into the Beatles music making process. Wish they also offered those extra recordings at a lower price without fancy packaging for Beatles fans who aren't super rich. The packaging of the BluRay/CD SuperDeluxe edition is fantastic & absolutely worth it for wealthy collectors, but there are lots of other fans who aren't wealthy & would love to have these additional recordings in a physical format (LP, CD, BluRay, etc) so as to listen to them whenever they want to even decades later (I still listen to stuff purchased decades ago), it would have been nice to see such editions available at a more affordable rate with basic packaging.The remainder of this review pertains to the 50th anniversary edition of the Beatles Abbey Road in LP format (Vinyl) . I find the sound of this edition a bit too extra 'refined/polished' compared to the various previous editions I've owned over the decades. But it gives us a new way to appreciate this fantastic final album of arguably the worlds best band, you notice new details in songs that weren't noticeable before. The Vinyl version I have can be on the quieter side if your turntable isn't well calibrated as I noticed it's volume is very sensitive to how the turntables tonearm & catrige is calibrated. It's the only Vinyl I've owned that seems to be so sensitive.... get that balance right with your turntable & the sound from this LP is fantastic get that balance (tonearm calibration) wrong with your turntable & the sound output is much lower.

Sounds near to perfection
Was first skeptical to purchase it based on the various reviews complaining of a warped or scratched record and yet I took a chance. And to my surprise, the record was in perfect condition. It sounded almost nearly perfect with crisp vocals and one can even hear Paul's bass pretty loud and clear. If you're having doubts just like I did in the first place, do no worry a bit and go for it. Definitely worth the price.

The pressing was good
The pressing was fine and there's no point in talking about the album, one of all time great. Happy with the purchase
