I must admit in this release cycle I've been much more interested in the reissue of the "1962-66" set and all the remixes of their songs originally recorded onto 2 track recorders.
The technology used to separate the stems from just 2 tracks well enough to remix into true stereo mixes is absolutely mind blowing to me. I can finally listen to "Roll Over Beethoven" in stereo on my headphones without going insane!

This technology is only going to get better. I predict that in the future we'll have versions of songs like 'I'll always be in love with you' sounding like a full Beatles production. It's just a bit sad that there aren't songs of better quality waiting for this treatment.

I'd like to hear an improvement to the Star Club recordings reaching full modern live concert recording quality. I'd buy that at a premium.
