Subject: Beatles Box Set/ Live Aid release Tuesday - November16, 2004



On November 16, 2004, Capitol Records will release the new box set: The Capitol Albums Volume 1, a collection of the first four Capitol U.S. records by The Beatles. The set brings together for the first time on CD the U.S. Versions of Meet The Beatles and the three other Capitol albums that were released in 1964 - The Beatles Second Album, Something New and Beatles '65.? 

Further, each of the discs will include two versions of each song - one in stereo (or duophonic in some cases) - then the selections are repeated in mono. The duophonic sound was carefully created by Capitol, using 2 channels of mono which were equalized, compressed and then reverb was added. The Capitol Albums Volume 1 have been carefully mastered from the original masters, taken from the vaults at Capitol Records,? to ensure that they sound as they did when first released.

With the release of The Beatles catalog on CD in 1987, releases were standardized on a worldwide basis and eventually the U.S. albums, which had last appeared on vinyl and cassette, were deleted.
Since that time there has been increasing demand for these original U.S. albums to make their CD debut which they now do as part of this specially priced and uniquely packaged 4 CD boxed set.
The Capitol Albums Volume 1 includes all four of the group's (Capitol) 1964 album releases, and each of the discs is housed in a miniature replica of the original album cover.?  It will also feature a 48 page booklet, along with a scrap book effect of photos and clippings from that amazing year.?

The historic 1985 Live Aid concert will finally be released on DVD on November 16.

Earlier this year, the Band Aid Trust agreed to auction the global rights for the concerts for the first time, after pirated copies were found for sale on the Internet. The iconic Live Aid, held at London's Wembley and Philadelphia's JFK Stadium, raised more than $70 million for famine relief in Africa.
Among the acts that performed were U2, Bob Dylan with Keith Richards and Ron Wood, David Bowie, Madonna, Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, Neil Young, Queen, and the three surviving members of Led Zeppelin. The DVDs will feature a documentary, "Food, Trucks & Rock'n'Roll," plus performances from related Live Aid events around the world.

"Twenty years ago they not only played 'real good for free,' they took an issue that was nowhere on the agenda of the political world and placed it at the very top," said concert organizer Bob Geldof. "By buying the Live Aid DVD, that day continues far off into some distant but hopefully better future for all those people in whose name those great artists played."
