All editions are currently available for preorder.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe magic comes from the hands playing the instruments, the blend of The Beatles\u2019 voices, the beauty of the arrangements,\u201d Martin wrote in his introduction for the reissue. \u201cOur quest is simply to ensure everything sounds as fresh and hits you as hard as it would have on the day it was recorded.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The producer recently told <em>Rolling Stone<\/em> that the band was aware that <em>Abbey Road<\/em> was an essential piece of work in their career. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t that element of continuation: \u2018We\u2019ll put it out, then do something else,&#8217;\u201d Martin said. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t the White Album, where it feels like, \u2018This is where we are right now, and where we\u2019ll be in six months time, who knows, but we\u2019re on this journey and this is part of the journey.\u2019 They knew this was it. The way I would explain it is, you\u2019ve only got a certain number of breaths or heartbeats left in your life, and you want to make sure they\u2019re important. That\u2019s the essence of <em>Abbey Road<\/em> \u2014 they knew how important it was.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/music-news\/the-beatles-oh-darling-remix-abbey-road-anniversary-880872\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Rolling Stone<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Producer Giles Martin has remixed The Beatles\u2019 song \u201cOh!
