Beatles Re-issues on vinyl

When the Beatles re-issues CD's came out last year there was a lot of talk about the vinyl versions to follow. Has anyone heard any more about a time table for that?

It is currently being worked on. They do not want to rush the release if it is not all AOK Not really sure if they will use the remastered digital files (I hope not)to cut the master disks. Needs to be ananlogue all the way.

Any more word on this? I just got my hands on a MOFI box and I am wondering if the new vinyl would be as good, or hopefully better.

Hopefully better is an understatement IMO.

The MOFI Beatles stuff is very ordinary and a few of them are actually crummy.

If you want sonics, seek out the original Parlaphone, Capitol, or Apple releases.

If you want to fill the trophy case, buy the MOFI recordings.

I purchased all of the MOFI recordings on release and after listening to them side by side with the original US/UK versions seldom play them.

But they sure are pretty.
