Vinyl: The Beatles Collection MFSL 14 LP Original Master Recording set #1729 Unplayed!
ABOUT MFSL:
In 1982, "The Beatles: The Collection" is a limited edition boxed set of the group's 14 original disc releases, which were first issued in England on the Parlophone and Apple labels from EMI Records. Created by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs (MFSL), these recordings were exclusively transferred directly from The Beatles original recording studio master tapes to master lacquer discs. The discs were then refrigerated and flown from MFSL to Yokohama, Japan, for plating and pressing at the Victor Company. Here, they received the meticulous attention to precision and purity to produce these superior grade albums. The enduring value of these boxed sets is due to MFSL's legendary quality control standards, exclusive half-speed mastering system, and use of the world's highest quality vinyl, which ensured that every note, every nuance was immaculately preserved, and that each album will last many times longer than any conventionally produced LP.
The box set also comes with a 12 by 12 40-page color booklet which explains the MFSL process.
Released with much anticipation in early October 1982, The Collection was lauded by critics and Beatles fans worldwide for the superb sound, and sold-out completely within the first year. Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) pressed a second run of the Beatles Box Set for a total production run of 25,000 over the next two years or until October 1985.
Each album was pressed on black vinyl by the Victor Company of Japan ensuring the best sound quality possible. The album covers were replaced with photographs of tape boxes and log sheet. The original album covers were included in a booklet which also featured a certificate of authenticity as this was a limited edition collection. Missing from this collection was all of the Beatles' singles that did not appear on their original UK albums.
