Mono Masters was cut for vinyl by using a completely analogue signal path and with constant reterence to the original cutting notes made for the first pressings of the records included in this compilation. It has been made with current technology and without imposing the restrictions necessitated by the limitations of record players in the 1960s. Consequently, this album reveals more of the content of the audio on the master tapes.

The tracks on Mono Masters come from a variety of sources, including single and EP tracks, so it was necessary to compile a new analogue master tape. To avoid the risk of damaging the original masters by removing tracks from their original reels and then returning them, these tapes were copied to a new cutting master created for this release. The master tape for ‚Love Me Do‘ was not kept so a digital copy of a vinyl disc was used.

2014 mono reissue, pressed on 180g vinyl. Includes insert with mastering notes, updated publishing/copyright details, and ad for Cirque Du Soleil „Love“ show.
