US albums getting another release – 60 years etc.There has also been talk of a reissue or reworking of the US First Visit footage which had been made into various documentaries over the decades, tho nothing has been confirmed in the slightest.
Here’s a leak of the box set. It seems to be called 1964 US Albums in Mono, despite The Early Beatles being released in March 1965. Word is that The Beatles’ Story is exclusive to the box set, while the others will also get standalone releases.
The other US albums were Help ! (1965), Rubber Soul (1965), Yesterday And Today (1966), Revolver (1966), and Hey Jude (1970). Presumably there’ll be another box set to follow, though knowing Apple they might equally lose interest and forget all about it.
Here is the official trailer for the release:
The set looks great. Nice collection and great occation as its the 60th anniversary of the Fab Four conquering the US. Dont know if I should get it though. Not a Vinyl collector. Maybe Ill start with this release. Releasing 22th of november this year…

That’s the date With The Beatles and the White Album were released in the 1960s.
I guess we know now that it’s unlikely that there’ll be a Rubber Soul reissue this year. This one is too close to Christmas for there to be another.

I think the Rubber Soul reissues will be out next year as it’s the 60th anniversary, but I could be wrong.

Yeah. This allows the SDE to return to the correct anniversary year which Apple love.
There has been talk of a re-release of the ‘Anthology’ series and 2026 would provide Apple an extra year to prepare that since ‘Revolver ‘ got the SDE only recently (60 years since end of touring, ‘RL’ issued along with ‘A2’ and ‘A3’ and wasn’t the ‘Anthology’ video set released in 1996, plus it corrects ‘NAW’ not being on ‘A3’ – it overlooks ‘FAAB’ was 2025 but meh). Apple then do what Paul does with ‘BOTR’ and Yoko/Sean for ‘Imagine ‘ and celebrate the 60th anniversary of ‘Pepper’ because it’s law (same goes for Queen with ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’/’A Night At The Opera’). Also kills any hope of 1963 or 1964 box sets for a few years but many of which have only been issued on the revised ‘Red’ and ‘Blue’ sets.

What I want is the BBC sessions fully separated and enhanced by Peter and remixed in true stereo with any DJ talking removed. I’m sure he could improve that first ever session that’s only available in ropey quality as a boot as a bonus EP.

Hey @Joe do you own the Christmas Records 7″ coloured Vinyl set from 2017? I love that set!
I do. It’s nice. I’ve also got my mum’s original flexi fan club discs from 1963 and 1964. I think she stopped being a member after that.

It’s a fair assumption. I wish they’d looped back to 1963 after Let It Be , and reissued PPM and WTB last year, AHDN and BFS this year. If they’re going to hook the Rubber Soul reissue to the 60th anniversary, where do they go next? Do Help ! in the same year, then keep going backwards and ignore the anniversary thing?
One of the few good things to come of the pandemic was that labels mostly stopped doing anniversary reissues, and just put stuff out when it was ready (JL/POB, ATMP , LIB ). I wish they’d keep doing that.
