This week Apple Records/Capitol Records released the 14 album/16 LP Beatles vinyl boxed set. It’s the band’s entire in situ output while they were together (and alive) housed in a monolithic cardboard time capsule that is not unlike a black hole version of the Tesseract cosmic cube seen in the movie ‘The Avengers’. So what’s so amazing about this latest ad nauseam repackaging of the same material previously released as re-mastered CDs in 2009 and 2010? Well, it has bigger pictures…and, um, it’s on 180 gram vinyl…and um…the audio has been tweaked once again to compensate for the limitations of black PVC…and um….that’s it. In other word there is no difference.

Comic books have been a source of light amusement most of my life. Both my grandmother and her second husband (God bless their souls) always had a stack waiting for me and my sister every time my family visited so there was always a diversion in the form of ‘Richie Rich’. ‘Baby Huey’ and ‘Casper the Friendly Ghost’ at hand as well as ‘Star Trek’ adaptations by the Gold Key company – oh, if I only had those in my possession today.
