Given his unparalleled talent for innovative recording, mixing, and soundscaping, producer Sir George Martin has always been rightly referred to as "the fifth Beatle." Some 35 years after the Beatles disbanded, Martin was still shaping the group's music, as demonstrated by the 2006 release LOVE. The album (created to coincide with a Cirque du Soleil performance based on Beatles songs) amounts to a musical fantasia centered... | More | Average Ratings  from 23 reviewsPrice: $15.08 - $22.72 List Price: $24.98 |

| 6 out of 7 people found the following review helpful. I knew I wasn't going to like this, but it turns out that it is actually an amazing CD. The "mash-ups" aren't new, I figured I had heard them all before. Even though this sort of falls into the "mash-up" category, it's more of a sound collage with a Beatle surprise around every corner. If you are looking to buy this CD, please get the Special Edition with the DVD included. The CD is great, but the DVD with 5.1 surround mix transcends your home theater. | |

| 4 out of 7 people found the following review helpful. An interesting twist on some of the greatest rock songs ever written. George Martin and his son Giles work a lot of magic but at the end of the day it comes off as nothing more than an interesting listen and a novelty. When I first listened to it, my first thought was "this is like Stars on 45", a group who released a long Beatle medley back in the late 70's (it was actually quite good). I'm sure the Martin & Son's remixed, blended and interchanged music works well when it's layed in against the visuals of the play. So the CD by itself just might be out of context but by itself it falls a little flat after the first listen. **BnB Beatles Depot** | |

Specially created for the worldwide-famous acrobatic performance troupe Cirque Du Soleil, with a show taking place in Las Vegas, this album is an out-of-this world listening experience. Remixed and remastered by legendary record producer Sir George Martin and his son Giles, they have taken several original Beatles recordings and placed them together in a very interesting way. It truly is 'The Beatles as you have never heard them before'. First released in November 2006, "LOVE" turned out to be one of the finest examples of how far technology in the recorded music industry has advanced. There are many bright moments featured here, making this album an awesome musical trip back in time. Who would have ever thought that these recordings from the 60s could be improved in their sound and overall atmosphere? Several of the tracks are mixed quite well together. Especially impressive is the first-time true stereo mix of "I Am The Walrus". With this version, you can actually make out the instrumentation, as though you are hearing it for the first time. "Revolution" and "Back In The U.S.S.R." are included in this set, albeit in abbreviated version on the CD, and the original full-length version on the Audio DVD. And, don't forget "Gnik Nus", which is literally the song "Sun King" presented backwards. There is also an accompanying booklet included, featuring liner notes annotated by George and Giles Martin. Winner of 2 Grammy Awards, "LOVE" is a great album, that presents the timeless music of The Beatles in a very special way. It is a great addition the already-impressive library of Beatles CDs. | |

First, I will commit to reading more carefully in the future. These are 2 identicle cds with the exception that one can be played on your DVD player. But don't expect to see a dang thing. I bought this thinking "Aha, I can watch the whoe Cirque du Soleil show over and over." But alas, it was not so. Those Canadian circus folks are pretty darn private about their patented performances and unless you fork over the required ticket price you again and again you cannot watch the show again and again. What do I love about "Love"? Well, I love the Beatles music and here is some unusual combinations of tunes. Sometimes 3 songs blended for your awaiting ears. Beuatifully engineered and I am always eager to hear a new version that I haven't heard previously. Ultimately worth buying just do not expect to see a show. Hear the show. Very good cd. You will like it, I imagine. | |

Great music by the greatest band of all time. I saw the Beatles Love show at the Mirage last weekend, and the show was just awsome. The same CD/DVD was selling for $35.00 plus tax at the Beatles boutique next to the theatre, but I was able to get it on eBay for $17.00 and that included shipping. I will enjoy the music on the CD and on the DVD for many many years. A MUST HAVE for all the diehard Beatles fans. | |

I love the Beatles but honestly who chose these songs to feature. THEY STINK! They are song choices are both lesser known and of lesser quality. Don't waste money. Buy a 1/2 gallon of gas with this money at least that way you will get somewhere you want to be. | |

I purchased the item nearly a month ago and have not received item yet. I paid immediately, and I don't know what is causing this kind of delay. | |
