{"product_id":"the-beatles-past-masters-cd","title":"The Beatles - Past Masters [2CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Beatles' Past Masters collects every single, B-side and stray track that never made a UK studio album, presented here as the limited 2009 remastered two-CD edition in digipak packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor years these songs were scattered across singles and EPs, which meant some of the band's biggest hits were missing from the albums themselves. First released in 1988 as two volumes, this collection plugged the gap, and the 2009 remasters brought fresh clarity and punch to recordings fans thought they knew inside out. The enhanced discs also carry extra multimedia content for computer playback.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDisc one is a burst of early Beatlemania: She Loves You and I Want to Hold Your Hand crackle with youthful energy and those unmistakable harmonies, alongside German-language versions and rock and roll covers from their club days. Disc two traces the band's rapid evolution, from the double-tracked jangle of Day Tripper to the sprawling, sing-along grandeur of Hey Jude and the distorted bite of Revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArranged chronologically, the set doubles as a sideways history of the group, showing just how far they travelled between 1962 and 1970 through the songs they chose to release on their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone completing a Beatles collection, it is the missing piece that makes the whole picture make sense.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57453239435569,"sku":"5099924380720","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/The_Beatles-Past_Masters_CD.jpg?v=1794229460","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/the-beatles-past-masters-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
