12" Black Vinyl The Beatles Now and Then

The Beatles - Now and Then - 12 Inch

The Beatles’ double-A-side single for “Now And Then” and “Love Me Do” pairs the last Beatles song with the band’s first UK single. Powerful musical bookends to The Beatles’ recorded canon, both songs are also featured in the expanded Anniversary Editions for 1962-1966 (‘The Red Album’) and 1967-1970 (‘The Blue Album’).

“Now And Then”

“Now And Then” is the last Beatles song, written and demoed by John Lennon in the mid/late 1970s. With John’s voice now pristine in the mix, “Now And Then” features elements from the 1995 sessions including George Harrison’s guitar parts, and vocal and instrumental parts recorded by Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr in 2022, along with a new arrangement for strings. Produced by Paul and Giles Martin, “Now And Then” is the last song recorded by all four Beatles, a powerful and fitting finale for the band’s timeless recordings.

“Love Me Do”

The song that started it all, “Love Me Do” was The Beatles’ first UK single in 1962. For the first time, the iconic song has been de-mixed using machine aided learning and remixed in true stereo. “Love Me Do” launched The Beatles’ journey to unparalleled worldwide success and acclaim that continues to this day.

The grand finale!

The grand finale!
I have to admit, I was pretty excited about this song and couldn't wait for the release. Watching the short documentary on The Beatles YouTube channel brought tears to my eyes when I heard John's voice isolated from the original cassette tape. So amazing and this is such a wonderful song. The more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with it.The B side is pretty cool as it is a 2023 Stereo remix of the Ringo version of "Love Me Do". You can hear the separated parts on this song and makes it sound more spacious. Some people prefer the mono version, but I like the stereo version. My only complaint is George's guitar is low in this mix. Otherwise, this 12-inch single makes for a very cool collectible.The packaging is pretty good for a 12-inch single. The record comes in an audiophile poly lined paper sleeve with an insert. You won't find many new 12-inch single releases like this one. So the price is justified with the high-quality product that you are getting.So glad to be part of another min "Beatlemania". My first one was in the mid 90's when the "Anthology" series was released.

In this era in which we are living, nothing stirs me more than hearing this one last, precious Beatles song that transports me back to the kingdom of "if only." Before things were said that could never be taken back, before the bullets, before the watershed of grief, it stands as testimony of John's insights and creative process, George's soaring guitar taking one more flight, and Paul and Ringo's musicianship and commitment to what ultimately is an elegy for an entire era; for the group, and especially the half which is no longer with us, ironically giving them the last word. It feels like the result of a number of selfless acts of professionals, each doing their utmost for one last Beatles song. I believe the result is fitting for the most archetypal group in the history of rock 'n roll. The underlying message speaks quietly, softly saying, "remember us." And in a bittersweet way, truly earned, we do.

Sometimes—not often, but sometimes—a song that was originally written to mean one thing winds up, through a combination of circumstances, meaning something else entirely. This happened twenty years ago when Bruce Springsteen's rousing "My City of Ruins," which had originally been meant to call attention to the plight of the homeless in the Boss's hometown of Freehold, became, after he performed it at a benefit concert for the victims of the 9/11 attacks, at that moment and forever afterwards, a lament about the assault on the Twin Towers.

A similar transformation occurred during the process of polishing the recently released final Beatles single "Now and Then." Taking as its starting point John Lennon's wistful vocals from a demo tape of an unfinished love song he wrote for Yoko a few years before his murder, the track, augmented by the addition of a guitar solo the late George Harrison had laid down at the recording sessions that accompanied the "Beatles Anthology" documentary in the 1990s, as well as newly recorded bass by Paul McCartney and drums by Ringo Starr, emerges as a heartfelt elegy for John and George, for the band as a whole, and, in a larger sense, for us all.

Much has been made of the fact that the single, backed with a newly remastered and remixed version of the Beatles’ very first single, 1963’s “Love Me Do,” provides, as it were, bookends to the Beatles’ career. We are presented with the group’s first offering, and its last. But while “Love Me Do” was a vigorous R & B romp buoyed up by Lennon’s exuberant harmonica, "Now and Then," set to a string arrangement that is lush but tasteful, and never maudlin, presents a more sedate and contemplative epitaph.

However, the two songs do share one important feature in common. In neither case are the lyrics particularly deep or sophisticated—in fact, it is the very lack of specificity in the words to "Now and Then" that allows an ersatz love song to take on a larger and more inclusive meaning—serving mostly as vehicles for the expressiveness of the voices themselves. Although they occupy different ends of the emotional spectrum, both songs are more visceral than cerebral, more concerned with the feelings they evoke than with what is, or isn’t, actually being said.

"Now and Then" does not represent the Beatles’ finest hour; nor, I believe, is it meant to. And it was never destined for universal acclaim. A good friend of mine, who grew up in England and probably experienced Beatlemania firsthand, finds the song saccharine and trivial, and it’s not difficult to see why some fans might consider it so. But I find it’s growing on me more and more after repeated listening over the past week. While it’s admittedly no masterpiece, it does deliver one last, sweetly haunting echo of a bygone era. For me at least, this is sufficient. It is more than enough.

It's the Beatles and I couldn't love this song more! I am so sad that it's the final Beatles song but, somehow, it is the perfect ending for the band I have loved since I was nine years old. ♥

As soon as the Rolling Stones released "Don't Get Angry with Me", the Beatles, in continuing the competition since they started in the 60's, had to release a new record themselves, "Now and Then". The song in itself is no where as good as the Stones, but you will need it to complete your collection. I will admit that I would have preferred them to release "Sour Milk Sea" instead - maybe in another 10 years! My only complaint is that it comes with a small hole. 45rpms, by nature, are 7 inches in diameter with a large hole so they are stackable on a turntable, or placed inside of a juke box. This 45 has to be dinked out before it can be played as such. Yes, it is 7 inches in diameter and is a 45.
