The white album mono vinyl. Obviously the beatles white album is a classic even more so on vinyl in the original mono format. The beatles white album is released in mono on 180 gram vinyl with faithfully replicated artwork newly mastered from the analogue master tapes. Ever on any format for those of us who think this is the greatest album of all time and i think there s quite a few of us it was very exciting to finally get to hear this mix. The white album is the only one of those 10 albums that was never released in mono on vinyl in the u s.

Which isn t a huge surprise since most of the rest of the band s catalog is also out of print on lp in the u s. The vinyl pressing is very quiet and the mono mix has an intimate feel that is missing from the more familiar stereo mix. The mono white album has remained out of print on vinyl since then. A wonderful recreation of the original release of the white album complete with embossed name and individual serial number on the cover and the four individual color portraits and the poster with lyrics on the reverse side.

In an audiophile minded undertaking the beatles acclaimed mono albums have been newly mastered for vinyl from quarter inch master tapes at abbey road studios by grammy winning engineer sean magee.
