Rock Band is just part of the Sept. 9 Fab Four onslaught. Apple Corps/Capitol is issuing a box set of all 13 original Beatles LPs, from Please Please Me to Let It Be, plus the Yellow Submarine movie score and the two-disc singles set Past Masters. They all sound great in versions remastered for the first time since the 1987 editions (which are still fine). Each CD comes with the original album art, a booklet of new information and rare photographs of the quartet and a minidocumentary on the making of each album.

...learned that our vocals may not sound as great as they do in the shower or the car, and in the Beatles' instrumental interludes, we may not play their guitar as well as our air guitar.

"I just really respect your profession. I didn't want to have too many Ebonic words in there." And I do believe that at Harvard, students now write papers in which they...
...These claims are not as incredible as they might sound. The saga of “The Arctic Sea” makes it clear that Israel is not kidding around, nor is it waiting upon developments. Israel will protect itself first and then send politicians to smooth things over when the issue has been rendered a fait accompli. Hopefully the United States and the rest of the world heed the warning left on that abandoned ship...
