Remastered Beatles - stereo, mono or both?

I should have splurged on the mono set as well. True, I would have listened to them only once, but the same can be said of watching many DVDs I buy.

That NPR interview GD linked to brought up some strong memories. We must have had the mono Sgt. Pepper when I was a kid, and I haven't heard some of that stuff since 1967. I particularly recall She's Leaving Home at the different tempo and key. It released a flood of memory, and I'm really keen to listen to the mono mixes of these LPs. A pox on them for not selling them separately.

I've read and heard several enthusiastic reviews of these reissues so I think I'm going to have splurge on a boxed set. I should anyway, just to re-establish my Beatlemaniac cred. I never bought more than a few CDs so I can't play much of my favorite music. Time to fix that.
