 - A REASON TO BUY THIS ITEMIt's hard to find a reason to buy this CD for a long time Beatles fan like me, who owns all their entire catalog. I admit that I would never buy such a compilation, but finally I did because I've found a reason: the remastered sound. The songs sounds better than ever and certainly the sound of this CD has no comparison with the released official albums. If Apple or EMI someday decide to update the sound of all Beatles CD's the way they did with this one, I would no doubt to replace mi collection. Rating: - You can't beat this Beatles CD!It's pretty hard to beat the Beatles if you're into the oldies. The best part of this title is it's so complete and it brings back so many memories. Rating: - In a word: timelessI've had this album for over seven years and I never get tired of it. And if you're someone who appreciates good music, neither will you. Whether you're a casual fan, a die hard fan or even just recently a new fan, this will be a very worthy addition. For the new fan, it's the perfect introduction to one of the most influential bands in music. You can actually hear them grow with each track. Yet as superb as this album is, it only scratches the surface. The albums "With The Beatles", "Sgt. Pepper" and The White Album are not covered because there were no singles off those albums. "Nowhere Man" from "Rubber Soul" was released as a single in the U.S. but only went to #3. This undermines the fact that some of their most popular songs didn't top the charts or were not released as singles. For the long time or die hard fan this is worth getting for the packaging. The liner notes feature different picture sleeves for all the singles as well as release dates. Finally, all the tracks except the first three are in stereo. John, Paul, George and Ringo have definitely left their mark on the world. This collection is proof of that. Total Time-79:08 Rating: - Enjoying this again and againThere are certainly better qualified Beatles fans to get a review from, however, I must say I am enjoying this CD. The time I've spent listening to it is no longer markable in hours. We are looking at days here now. I am not entirely sure that all the #1 hits are on here but enough are for me to enjoy the whole thing. It is also filling some gaps I have in my newly forming Beatles collection. Some of their songs it seems aren't on the albums and this CD got them in my hands and ears. That shows the value of the CD right there. Very enjoyable and highly recommended. Rating: - new Beatles fanI know that the Beatles' music is held near and dear to many diehard fans so I don't want to even try to suppose I know how well this complilation was organized but I do know that I loved the music!
