Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 11/500!

"Revolver was the sound of the Beatles fully embracing the recording studio as a sonic canvas, free to pursue musical ideas and possibilities that would reshape rock forever." — Rolling Stone

From "Taxman" to "Tomorrow Never Knows," The Beatles' Revolver has been newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and engineer Sam Okell, and sourced directly from the original 4-track master tapes with audio brought forth in stunning clarity with the help of cutting-edge technology developed by the award-winning sound team at Peter Jackson's WingNut Films Productions Ltd. Now available on 180-gram vinyl.

Revolver was The Beatles' 1966 album that changed everything. Spinning popular music off its axis and ushering in a vibrant new era of experimental, avant-garde sonic psychedelia, Revolver brought about a cultural sea change and marked an important turn in The Beatles' own creative evolution. With Revolver, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr set sail together across a new musical sea.

On October 28, 2022, Revolver will be released worldwide in a range of beautifully presented, newly mixed and expanded Special Edition packages by Apple Corps Ltd./Capitol/UMe.

The Revolver album's 14 tracks have been newly mixed by producer Giles Martin and engineer Sam Okell in stereo and Dolby Atmos, and the album's original mono mix is sourced from its 1966 mono master tape.

All the new Revolver releases feature the album's new stereo mix, sourced directly from the original 4-track master tapes. The audio is brought forth in stunning clarity with the help of cutting edge de-mixing technology developed by the award-winning sound team led by Emile de la Rey at Peter Jackson's WingNut Films Productions Ltd.

Across all the configurations, Revolver's Special Edition showcases the Grammy-winning original album artwork created by The Beatles' longtime friend, German bassist and artist Klaus Voormann.

After the December 1965 release of their groundbreaking album, Rubber Soul, and after wrapping up that year's tour dates, a late decision to cancel shooting plans for a third Beatles film, A Talent For Loving, would have a significant effect on the creation of Revolver. The time allocated for filming and recording songs for a soundtrack was removed from the band's schedule, allowing the group to take a four-month break before the Revolver recording sessions began. "One thing's for sure," John said a few weeks before the band's return to the studio, "the next LP is going to be very different."

On April 6, 1966, The Beatles gathered in Studio Three at EMI Studios (now called Abbey Road Studios) for their first Revolver recording session. With their producer George Martin flanked by recording engineer Geoff Emerick and technical engineer Ken Townsend, they went in blazing, starting with "Tomorrow Never Knows." John's ethereal vocals (fed from his mic through a rotating Leslie speaker), innovative tape loops — including Paul saying ‘ah, ah, ah, ah', which when sped up produced a sound similar to a seagull's screech — converge with Ringo's thunderous drum pattern, George's tamboura drone, and a backwards guitar solo. "Tomorrow Never Knows" propelled The Beatles and popular music into exciting new terrain. In an interview before Revolver's August 5, 1966 release, Paul explained to NME, "We did it because I, for one, am sick of doing sounds that people can claim to have heard before." Revolver's Special Edition also features The Beatles' first take of "Tomorrow Never Knows" from the April 6 session and a mono mix that was issued on a small number of records before the LP was recut with the correct version.
