Summary:
The first time the album has been remixed and presented with additional session recordings and demos. To create the new stereo mixes, Giles Martin and Sam Okell worked with an expert team of engineers and audio restoration specialists at Abbey Road Studios. The Deluxe two CD set pairs the new stereo mix, sourced directly from the original eight-track session tapes with versions taken from the session takes and demo recordings of its seventeen songs, sequenced to match the album's running order.
