   Didn’t know the story about George overseeing the remaster of the White Album. Cool that he did that. I gotta go with the US version of “She’s a Woman” and “I Feel Fine”. Just feels way bigger to me and has a cool sound to it. Also – The Beatles Second Album was a cool compilation for sure as was “Rubber Soul”. “Yesterday and Today” is ‘ok’. The US version of the “Help!” album was a drag. All that soundtrack stuff… yikes.
   Re: I Want To Hold Your Hand – “Leaping an octave means sex?” says who?? This is a laughable assertion to me. Sometimes things just sound good. Granted, I do think the lyrics are actually more sex entailed than at first glance. (Same with Please Please Me). I have listened to your guest’s podcast for a while. Yours is superior in every way.

   Making The Beatles sound like they’re performing halfway down a tunnel isn’t a good sound and God knows why anyone would think it is. As for the Capitol Rubber Soul neither of the 2 “Help!” tracks are strong enough to be side openers, the album suffers rather than be enhanced by these. It’s refreshing to hear an American say that it wasn’t a “folk-rock” album because it clearly wasn’t the group’s intention to make “themed” albums at that point.
