The Beatles: Live At The Hollywood Bowl IS OUT TODAY

Out Now. The Beatles: Live At The Hollywood Bowl captures the joyous exuberance of the band’s three sold-out concerts at Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl in 1964 and 1965. You can order your copy here. While The Beatles: Live At The Hollywood Bowl references the long out of print 1977 album, it is an entirely new release, directly sourced from the original three track tapes of the concerts. A companion to The Beatles: Eight Days A Week – The Touring Years, the album is out worldwide on CD and for digital download and streaming on September 9, followed by a 180-gram gatefold vinyl LP on November 18. Joe Levy's Rolling Stone review: “The Beatles: Live at the Hollywood Bowl Offers Raw Frenzy” * * * * ½  “a seamless rush of manic love”...“such a thrill”... “explosive joy” “the frenzy never lets up, a direct line into the sexualized hysteria at the heart of early rock & roll”  GET IT NOW 'BOYS' Watch the new video of Ringo and the band performing BOYS, the Shirelles’ hit from August 23rd, 1964, at the Hollywood Bowl.  The new audio mix for the video was directly sourced from the original three track tapes of the concerts. "Technology has moved on since my father worked on the material all those years ago," music producer Giles Martin said.  Giles and Abbey Road engineer Sam Okell have expertly remixed and mastered the recordings at Abbey Road Studios, including the thirteen tracks from the original album produced by Giles’ father, plus four additional, previously unreleased recordings from the momentous concerts. "Now there's improved clarity, and so the immediacy and visceral excitement can be heard like never before."..."What we hear now is the raw energy of four lads playing together to a crowd that loved them. This is the closest you can get to being at the Hollywood Bowl at the height of Beatlemania." WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Podcast 1/5 Find out about the creation of the new album, and the band's experiences of touring the USA with the first chapter of our radio podcast about The Beatles:  Live At The Hollywood Bowl.  In the first chapter, Giles discusses the recording and remixing of the album.
