This
is series.
Silly question #1: does the CD play just right by itself?

Do the CDs sound okay in a regular CD player?

You should carefully read the literature that comes with that Box set. The recordings are unedited analog recordings, some of them before mixing effects.
The set is meant to capture all the flaws and mistakes and “live recording” feel of the original recording sessions.

What hardware are you using? And, just like another FReeper asked, does it play okay, playing from the CD, and not just from the downloaded tracks?
And are you hearing this through an iPod, a desktop, or what? [basically at “what stage” of the process are you hearing this kind of a “result” that you see as “something is wrong”)?

This is series. I advise not looking directly at the sun while attemping to play.
Problem solved!

I had something similar to this happen once, when I was listening to Monday, Monday by the Mamas and the Papas. I had one speaker turned off for some reason. All you could hear was the female vocal parts. Kinda cool, actually.

I’ve had luck in the past creating a MP3 version of problem tracks, takes the edge off so to speak.

Is this the "Box Set" you're talking about... (if so, I can check it out for you and see if I get the same problem...) :-)

Some “iTunes help” for a FReeper by some Mac-sters... maybe?

I have also “rerecorded” some tracks at different sampling rates. Send me Freepmail if you want details.

Yep, that looks like the same set.
To: Lancey Howard
Do you mean you have the CDs? ie, you didn’t download the set from iTunes?

George Martin, the Beatles producer, was legendary for using this “wall in the middle” effect. It’s quite possible that these tracks are historically correct but will sound like crap through headphones. The MP3 remix might be your best bet or just torrent them.
Goo goo ga choob...

Try playing them backwards. Let us know what you learn.

Do the CDs sound okay in a regular CD player?I will check that out. Unfortunately, my car CD player is broken but maybe I can dig up a walkman. I tend to listen to most of my music on my computer, and believe it or not the sound quality is excellent.
I have eighty bajillion songs in my folders and they all sound great. Anything I load onto ITunes I convert to MP3 (128 bps). In this case, though, the Beatles CDs don't sound right (as described in original post) no matter how i load them.
Again, I am pretty sure the problem would be corrected if simply the channels (left-right) were reversed.
