Yeah I know about RAM, and I have to say Paul's vinyl are a bit expensive, at least on Amazon. I think I saw Band On the Run is 37 euros...

No new Beatles vinyl I can think of, but Paul's new remastered Ram album will be on vinyl in stereo and mono. And George's new Early Takes' albums are on vinyl too.

Since we are talking about reissues, are there any news on re-releasing all The Beatles albums on vinyl?

Those last couple of points are very Neil Aspinall era, if that means anything. Since he left Apple and Jeff Jones took over as CEO they've been WAY more proactive in reissuing material. Aspinall basically said no to everything apart from Anthology, Live At The BBC and Yellow Submarine for 30 years. I suspect we'll see LIB next year - if for no other reason, they'll want it out before everyone stops buying optical discs and the market shrinks.

I get the impression Paul doesn't want it to go ahead because he feels it makes him look bossy and pedantic rather than the everyman diplomat he likes to be in public.

I doubt its going to be out in 2013 piggies. The title of the thread was based on a comment by Michael Lindsay-Hogg but the ultimate decision has to be complete agree from Paul, Yoko, Olivia and Ringo. Yoko would probably release anything if she could spin it to make Johns image remain intact and herself look great - tho that might be hard with the Let It Be film. As for the other 3 i dont think they want to go back there (Olivia keeping George's views).

Shame for the fans and hopefully im wrong.

Wow, excited for this! Do you think they'd show it in theaters?

Beatles Examiner reports that in a recent interview Ringo said that whilst Let It Be will be released at some point there are no plans at the moment and its not being discussed. No real surprise and would he tell us if there were anyway.

Ringo also discussed new projects. "“Everything that the Beatles ever did, that we were involved in, is out. What isn't out?” But asked about all the Beatles' unreleased concerts on bootlegs, he said, “Well, there's the Hollywood Bowl, Shea, what else is there?"".

Which brought to to mind Monty Pythons 'What Did The Romans Ever Do For Us' sketch from ...

I heard about this a few months back and I heard that they are going to re-release MMT. Hope they do because I don't own MMT (I find it incredibly difficult to find. The only place I could find it was when I went to Liverpool in the summer)

I was a little surprised that there was no real promotion campaign to launch the beatles on itunes. It was all rather quiet and then it all exploded when it came out. There were a few rumours but nothing like most beatles releases.

I'm definately not letting my hopes get too high,the date will probably keep being pushed later and later until they "forget" all about it.Though I'm not going to lie,I'm wishing and hoping so badly that it really does get released!

I completely disagree. The DVDs of AHDN, Help! and YS have been around for years. As far as I know only the first of those has been issued on Blu-Ray, and even then I don't think it's available here in the UK – you have to import it. They're missing a trick by not reissuing these films – and the promo films, the Maysles movie, Shea Stadium etc.

And if they're going to re-release AHDN, H! and YS, it's the (post-Aspinall) Apple way to come up with an elaborate reissue plan rather than just put them out. There'll be a whole ...

I'm hoping they do release the movie on DVD, since the VHS version looks very grainy. It would also be interesting to see the outtakes and extra footage . However, I'm siding with meanmistermustard, as I don't think it will be released soon. I think the time that it will be released is when - shiver- all the Beatles are gone.

You could make the argument that it kinda makes Paul et al look retroactively worse by keeping this stuff under wraps - like they think they have something to hide, rather than just "Hey, we were young men then and full of ego, but we're over it now and consequently have no problem with presenting all this stuff." It's not like the potential audience - us - isn't already aware of whatever unpleasantness may be on display.

I wanna see all that extra stuff too!

I'm with Joe that I want to see the stuff that was left out. I'd watch it all to be honest, despite the fact that they don't come off as liking each other a whole lot, you're still watching the four Beatles and Billy Preston put together an album which is still cool, no matter what the circumstances are. I think it would be the best tool to figure out how the breakup really went down. All we have now is one persons opinion or another, I'd be nice to see it though. If the Beatles are like a movie ...
