Tema: The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Ediciones 50 Aniversario.

Parece que se aproxima el Santo Grial para los Beatlemanos. Este verano se cumple el 50 aniversario de la publicación de su disco más emblemático, el Sgt. Pepper's (si es el mejor es un debate interminable), y Apple ha tirado la casa por la ventana para tal ocasión. Después de incitar a la curiosidad con este vídeo-teaser:



han aparecido en Amazon las pre-reservas (fecha de salida: 26 de mayo) que ya nos dan una idea de las distintas configuraciones:

-Edición 1 CD

-Edición 2 CD

-Edición 2 vinilos

-Edición Deluxe de... ¡6 discos!

Edito: ya tenemos confirmación de los contenidos. Esto es lo que incluye la edición Deluxe (y sí, es el Santo Grial ):

-Nueva mezcla stereo de Giles Martin a partir de los masters originales. Este disco está incluido en todas las ediciones.

-Dos discos de outtakes de las sesiones, con más de 100 minutos, incluye remezcla stereo de Strawberry Fields Forever y Penny Lane. Uno de estos discos se incluye en la edición de 2 CD/ 2 vinilos.

-El álbum original en mono con 6 extra tracks, incluyendo versión "perdida" de Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

-DVD y Blu-ray que incluyen el documental "The making of Sgt. Pepper", mezcla en 5.1 del disco y la mezcla stereo en Hi-Res.

-Libro de 144 páginas (tiene una pinta brutal)

-2 posters (uno es réplica del que publicó en 1967 el Club de Fans de los Beatles y el otro es una réplica del póster circense que inspiró a Lennon la canción "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite!").
