The Beatles Anthology, which traces the history of The Beatles from before its formation to its dissolution in chronological order with rare recordings and live performances, was released in 1995 as a documentary project consisting of video footage, books, and a trilogy of albums. The trilogy of albums featured numerous studio outtakes, demos, live recordings of existing TV broadcasts and concerts, and new songs "Free as a Bird" and "Real Love" based on John Lennon's recordings. Three types of songs were released sequentially from VOL.1 to 3 on 2CD, and they included previously unknown first-time recordings and unreleased songs, which shocked Beatles collectors at the time and attracted attention. In the 20 years or so since then, sound source sources have been discovered, and many sound sources, including those that were not recorded in 95, have evolved to be closer to the original sound, unedited, and the quality of sound sources has improved. In addition, remastering technology has progressed and the sound quality has been further improved. Monaural sound sources have also been converted to real stereo by the latest AI sound source analysis, and unprecedented attempts are also evolving. "Complete Works" follows the original anthology trilogy, but basically re-edits based on the best sound source at the moment. In addition, it is an extended and revised version that has been replaced with longer episodes and versions than the original. Not only has the content increased significantly compared to the original, but if you listen to it and compare it, you can see the difference in the sound quality and quality of the updated. As a sound source collection that traces the history of The Beatles in chronological order, it covers all basic rare sound sources and additionally includes newly discovered sound sources, making it a highly recommended and noteworthy series that can be said to be the latest edited version that is ideal for an introduction to collectors.
[Contents of Anthology Complete Works 2]
CD1 started with a live performance on Swedish TV, which was the first tour of the band in '63. The original monaural sound source has been converted to real stereo and the sound quality has been upgraded. The "Royal Variety Performance", which can be said to be a historical live sound source, includes all songs, including original cut songs. Later, unearthed songs from "Long Tall Sally" in Washington, D.C., and Around the Beatles were also added. The outtakes, which were mono in the session recordings of the album "A Hard Day's Night", have been upgraded to real stereo, and the demos of this period, such as "What Goes On", "A World Without Love", "One and One Is Tu", and "It's for You", are also recorded in fragments. "You Know What to Do" is stereoized. CD2 contains all the songs of the '64 Hollywood Bowl. This is based on the original acetate sound source, which is different from the official remaster. The outtakes of the second half of the album "Beatles for Sale" sessions were also replaced with real stereo from monaural, and the sound quality itself was improved. It contains outtakes from the last '64 Christmas message that were not used.
