From what I've read here and at other places (and what my ears tell me is) Capitol not only sliced and diced the song selection on the Beatles' albums, but also second-generation master tapes were used, much reverb added, pressed on inferior vinyl.
I'm not an original pressing snob by any means--if I can find a clean copy of something desirable I'm thrilled--but the difference between the Parlophone and Capitol Beatles albums is so great that I sold off all my Capitols.
