John Lennon Reissues so has anybody gotten these yet? They came out today.
I picked up Double Fantasy and Milk & Honey - - - both sound incredible. I'm a little "meh" on the "stripped" version of Double Fantasy... kinda like polished demos. Don't really do much for me.
But I definitely want to get the rest of them. They sound beautiful. * * *

Hey Pandurito
I have this box set in my queue for purchase but am planning on waiting for the price to drop. Why the letdown? | |

The box is beautiful and all but I already had the albums and haven't noticed any improvement in sound. Maybe it's my fault. I had the remasters from 10 years ago. Plus I expected the Double Fantasy Naked to be in the box as announced and it isn't. Oh well. | |

I see. Thanks
I was just reading a few on line reviews and they stated that this box went back to the original masters and not the Yoko sanctioned remasters from a few years back. For some that's a good thing, for others, not so much.
I also see a number of folks complaining about your exact point too (stripped Double Fantasy). Frustrating they can't get this stuff right. In the non-CD purchasing age we live in, you'd figure they would go the extra mile to make sure the buyer felt they got their money's worth.... | |
