Throughout all of London and many other cities this morning, commuters on our thousands of buses and trains could read in the free "Metro" newspaper (circulated at all railway & bus stations) the headline story in its MetroLife "CD-of-the-week" music section:

"Fresh take on the Fab Four".
CD of the week — The Beatles: Love.

Here's how it reads:

> > Remixing vintage rock'n'roll is tricky territory – attempts to update The Beatles recall the former London tourist spot Rock Circus, with its wobbly animatronic dummies of the Fab Four.

Luckily, the much-anticipated Love album involves a classier kind of circus – it soundtracks the new Vegas extravaganza from Cirque Du Soleil – and it's an incredible stand-alone listening experience.

Essentially, The Beatles' original producer Sir George Martin and his son Giles have honed a sophisticated mash-up, created from the complete Abbey Road master tapes.

Love is a technical feast (particularly in surround-sound DVDA), re-imagining and segueing classics: the sweet a cappella opener Because, a funky, stripped-down version of Come Together, Strawberry Fields Forever blossoming from acoustic guitar to percussive epic.

Perhaps some context is lost in condensing this legendary canon – but Love imbues legendary tracks with fresh clarity, besides haunting qualities.

By the finale – All You Need Is Love – it warrants a hearty ovation. < <

b.t.w. With 1.1 million copies, Metro UK is the free daily with the largest circulation in the country.

I came off the train this morning, and I could see the "Love" DVD-A/CD pack prominently placed in the record stores at Victoria Station, London.

DVD-A hits the masses!
