You have found a page containing the most definitive compilations available of the Beatles' music. Included are many of the fine Dr. Ebbetts needle-drops, and the Purple Chick series, nearly in it’s entirety. Also, some great bootlegs are here that fill in any blank spots left.

You will download .zip and .rar files that contain .flac files. You can play the .flac files with VLC Media player, or you can use Winamp…which will also allow you to change them into .wav or .mp3 files. Then you can burn them to a disk or send them to your ipod.

There is a Website chronicling the Purple Chick series. Use it as a guide for what is available. I have not been able to find a website regarding the Dr. Ebbetts collection. However, This Guide shows what is available from the good Doctor. And This Link is to a PDF of even more information.

Enjoy this collection!!!

Beatlemania! With The Beatles (Canadian Stereo LP, Narrow Mix/Hybrid)

Comments
From Doc E: “Okay, it’s not the much heralded wide mix of this album, but it is a great sounding LP nonetheless. In fact, the first seven songs appear to be good old fashioned true stereo – sounding quite excellent. The last seven songs are in stereo, but the separation is much narrower – hence, the name. The sound is great. Sourced from an unopened copy of the LP. As you know, there is a "wide mix," heralded by many to be among the best sounding versions of this LP, if not the best ... and a "narrow mix," where the left and right channels are panned somewhat toward the center, "narrowing" the stereo spectrum. This is a "hybrid" version of the LP. Capitol of Canada apparently pressed some wide stereo versions, some narrow stereo versions, and some that had both - thus a "hybrid."

This is my favorite issue of the With The Beatles songs. Check out the bass! It is rich and full here. Paul was such a melodic bass player.

Are you shure this is the 'wide version'? Isn't this the so-called 'hybrid' version, where side one has the wide mix and side two the narrow mix.

While side one sounds fantastic, side two doesn't at all sound
'wide' to me...

Anyway, thanks for this blog!

So yeah, this is the hybrid. Thanks again. Hopefully soon I'll stumble upon the wide mix.

I hope you do, I'm looking for the Wide-version for some time now but it's hard to find.
If you need other rare stuff, lemme know, I have over 100GB of HQ rare Beatles-stuff..
