Beatles' Apple label to release downloads
Сотрудники Apple Records приступили к переизданию части своего каталога в цифровом формате. Уже ремастированы альбомы Badfinger, Мери Хопкин (Mary Hopkin), Джона Тавенера (John Tavener).
Поступление дисков в продажу намечено на 25 октября этого года.
The label, owned by the band, has remastered 15 of its "key" albums including work by Badfinger, Mary Hopkin and Sir John Tavener, the classical composer.
The announcement of the releases on CD and in digital format will raise hopes that The Beatles may follow suit and make their tracks available for download at last. Announcing the releases Apple said: ''Together, the 15 albums represent the first ever Apple Records releases to be available via digital download.''
The band established the company in 1968 to release their own music and that of other artists they admired or discovered.
Its acts included James Taylor and Billy Preston, the keyboard player who worked with The Beatles on their Let It Be album.
