BEATLES JAPANESE ABBEY ROAD CD
ONLY 200 MADE by Toshiba!!!
ULTRA RARE CD-ABBEY-ROAD / EMI-Toshiba-JAPAN Limited Edition Only 200 copies
1983 (RARE) Black Triangle Cp35-3016YEK-749-A.B (CD) «First Pressing Beatles CD in the world
Sometime in 1983, Toshiba-EMI Japan released CP35-3016, making it the 1st official Beatles CD. It turned out, though, that they didn't have legal permission to release anything under their name, so it was quickly withdrawn to avoid any legal problems. Four years later, in 1987, a new version of Abbey Road was released worldwide, and was quickly panned by critics and Beatles fans alike. Why? Unlike the original release, it didn't come from a flat transfer of the master tapes. It used (Yikes!) a digital copy.
In fact, the CP35-3016 (often called the "Black Triangle" version in reference to the label artwork) has less dynamic range compression and (consequently) less hiss than the officially sanctioned 1987 version.
