Folk, soul and the first flickers of psychedelia crept in, and the lyrics turned towards adult relationships, regret and reflection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe new mix comes from Giles Martin and Sam Okell, working from the original four-track tapes with the de-mixing technology developed during the making of Get Back. Instruments that were once locked together now have room to breathe, and the vocal harmonies sit closer than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)\" famously brings George Harrison's sitar into the pop mainstream, \"In My Life\" pairs a wistful Lennon lyric with Martin's sped-up baroque piano break, and \"Nowhere Man\" glows with chiming guitars and stacked three-part harmonies. \"Drive My Car\" opens proceedings with a cheeky, soul-inflected swagger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSixty years on, this is still the hinge between the early Beatles and everything that followed, now sounding brighter and more present than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57439079334193,"sku":"602465723380","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/The_Beatles-Rubber_Soul_Special_Edition_CD_30b1aae9-7340-4592-9010-4a3e7497ee8f.jpg?v=1794153046","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/the-beatles-rubber-soul-special-edition-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
