The Beatles, riding on the success of their brilliant Sgt. Pepper's, topped off the end of 1967, the year of love, with the colorful "Magical Mystery Tour." John, Paul, George, and Ringo once more take us on a wild ride through their imaginations with the power of tunes like "Flying", "I Am the Walrus," and "Blue Jay Way." It is a tour that you will want to be on, and with the new 2009 remaster, the sound has never been more captivating! Your music collection will not be complete without "Magical Mystery Tour," a thrilling adventure for all!

It's hard to Believe that The Beatles actually STOPPED touring while their oldest member (Ringo Starr) was still only 26 years old! So, the band hit the Abbey Roads studios in the coming months to record two albums that would stun the musical world. Magical Mystery Tour is the 2nd of those two albums (Sgt. Pepper, of course, being the 1st). No one can actually have an insight to the psychedelic late 60s without having this album in their collection. What a colorful time it was!
This often overlooked Beatles release features 11 tracks in all but is chock full of hits. Includes such classic smash Beatles tracks as "The Fool On The Hill", "Your Mother Should Know", "I Am The Walrus", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Penny Lane" and the title track "Magical Mystery Tour". This remastered, digipak features features new photos and liner notes, and the Cd also features a Mini-Documentary playable on your computer. While most fans have HELP and HARD DAY'S NIGHT in their collection, for some reason MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR doesn't get the same homage it seems. Don't make the same mistake! If you're a true Beatles fan like myself, then be sure to add MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR to your Cd collection, you won't be disappointed. I give it a hardy 5 out of 5 stars. Cheers, longliveneil
The answer is, obviously, no. This might seem "just another Beatles album", but we all know that means "a superb, highly enjoyable, 5 star album with excellent performances by the best band in the world", just like all other Beatles albums from this remastered collection. This collection of songs created specifically for the US by Capitol back in 1967 was adopted as the official album (the only one by Capitol to be adopted as official). And even though the first half of the album is the movie soundtrack and the second half are UK singles you may be more familiar with, they fit perfectly together without feeling out of place, and each song is an individual gem. Songs like "The Fool on the Hill", "I Am the Walrus", "Hello Goodbye", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Penny Lane", and "All You Need is Love" are among the band's best. A must-have for every fan of the Fab Four. *****Read full review
