I'm in the same boat as you- Rubber Soul, revolver, Sgt. Pepper, and MMT are my favorite era of Beatles.

That's probably the only reason "Rock 'n' Roll Music is still in my collection- its got most of the songs I consider "hits" and I don't have to pony up for the LPs again.

Regarding mono vs. stereo; yeah, different mixes for sure, and mono was the priority for their mixing back then, with stereo being somewhat of an afterthought. I have heard just about everything from Help onward in mono, courtesy of my old guitar player (he bought he CD box when it came out). Although the mixes are quite good (and in some cases just more or less different), the perspective of "everything in the center" just doesn't play well with my perceptions.

It's an opinion issue, I guess. At least we agree on the same era of their output!
