The songs appear in both their mono and stereo mixes (the latter is a particular enticement since the tracks from, say, BEATLES FOR SALE were previously available only in mono). The set also features the original stereo mixes of HELP! and RUBBER SOUL (which are different from the digital remixes that appear on the standard issue CDs of those albums). Naturally, the music is fantastic, and with the remarkable new sound, extensive notes, and a photo-packed booklet, this is a sure bet for Beatles fanatics. The set is available in both a long box and a standard CD-sized box.
The second volume of Capitol's box set reissues of the Beatles' American album releases is tailor-made for collectors. The Beatles albums currently available on CD are based on the original British issues, so THE CAPITOL ALBUMS marks the CD debut of THE EARLY BEATLES, BEATLES IV, HELP!, and RUBBER SOUL, all of which were released in the U.S. in 1964.
The Beatles: John Lennon, George Harrison (vocals, guitar); Paul McCartney (vocals, bass guitar); Ringo Starr (vocals, drums).
CD Single
Rolling Stone (p.67) - 5 stars out of 5 -- "BEATLES VI is effectively their salute to American rock & roll, and the reworked RUBBER SOUL became their response to America's new folk-rock movement."

Capitol Albums, Vol. 2 Music Review
Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)    List All 13 Reviews American versions shine brightly! Everything is improved over Vol. 1 in this series. Liner notes are by Bruce Spizer, who knows what he is talking about. Sound of discs is pristube. When you open the package, everthing does not fall on the floor, like in Vol. 1. Rubber Soul and Beatles VI are classics. The instrumentals on Help are all right. I wish they did not omit songs from Introducing The Beatles on the Early Beatles. Too bad they couldn't have had the other Vee-Jay songs as bonus tracks on this one. But overall, I am playing this a lot and it all sounds great! Looking forward to Volume 3!!!

EXCELLENT REPRODUCTIONS THIS WELL MAY HAVE BEEN THE BEATLES' MOST CREATIVE YEAR. THE IMPACT OF THESE RELEASES AND MIXES CANNOT BE UNDERESTIMATED. ANY LOVER OF MUSIC SHOULD OWN THIS. Submitted by BEATLEFAN (STRAWBERRY FIELDS) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
kicks ass the best Submitted by scott (Walla,Walla,Wa) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Great but ... I purchased both Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 as a means to recapture the memories of the eight albums in the collection.
The quality is very good and I like the recreated jacket covers. The mono versions brings back the "AM" radio feel.
What was disappointing is that each album is missing two songs that were on the originals. That's 16 songs or being shorted one CD in a collection. Submitted by mjbart53 (Duluth, GA, USA)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 0 of 2 found this helpful.
Off to a Bad Start, but Great Beatles Music Ordered during pre-ship preriod and got the first pressing version, which has non-authentic 'fold-over' mono tracks on "Beatles VI" and "Rubber Soul". Returned set to CD Universe and they sent the 2nd pressing, on which Capitol put the correct original mono tracks (easy way to tell - the wrong mono version of "I'm Looking Through You" on "Rubber Soul" has the extented intro like the stereo version, instead of the correct brief intro as on the British Parlophone release).
Once past that, these are the song mixes and LPs we US Beatles fans bought and listened to back in '65 and'66 - GREAT! Submitted by Bob (Rowley, MA, US)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 1 of 1 found this helpful. This review is for a different format.
