The 7th studio album from The Beatles was released on 5 August 1966 with the double-A-side single “Eleanor Rigby” / “Yellow Submarine”.  The unexpected gift of a 3 month break at the start of ’66, meant that by April of that year they were ready to record their most ground-breaking album yet.  One that would go on to redefine how artists would write and record their songs and, with the help of a uniquely talented producer and engineers willing to find ways to help them realise their dreams, would change the way the world viewed albums as creative works in their own right.  The studio and the advancing recording technology lead to Revolver and the birth of a new era in rock/pop music.

However, there was one area in which technology had failed to advance as far or as fast – that of multi-tracking.  At this time, many instruments and vocal elements were combined or ‘bounced down’ to just 4 tracks in total, which had to become two tracks for the stereo.  The mono album, (from the original mono master tape) which is included in the box set here, was considered by the band and many at the time to be the primary format and how most people would listen to Revolver.  This was easy to mix down from the 4 tracks to create the final album but was not so easy to achieve in stereo.  They could not separate the individual instruments or vocals to allow an authentic stereo field to be created.  The result has always been considered to be the best that could have been done at the time, but not as good as the fans would have loved to be able to hear.

Until now.

Using AI technology developed by Peter Jackson’s Wingnut team to help deliver clear audio for the studio scenes in the Get Back docu series, Giles Martin realised quickly that this could provide a pathway for him to be able to ‘unpick’ those 4 track tapes and to free up the instruments from each other to enable him to attempt what would have been impossible until now.  With help and commitment of time, computing resource and a very clever and committed team, gradually the 4 tracks became multi-tracks and so are now able to release this truly stunning, exciting, ground-breaking REMIX of Revolver.  Finally, we are proud and happy to be able to bring you the mono album…in stereo!!

Additionally, we have the usual high-quality, deeply researched and comprehensive 100-page book featuring the story of the recording of the album, track-by-track, as well as the band’s situation during the year of 1966 and the reaction and subsequent life of the album.  Also, with a personal introduction by Paul McCartney, and one from Giles Martin, this book also features an incredible personal journey into Revolver and beyond from the modern genius of music, Questlove.  Featuring many photos as well as hand-written lyrics and the tape boxes, we are also delighted and proud to be able to include pages from the graphic novel by Klaus Voorman – friend of the band since Hamburg, bass-player and graphic artist in which he tells the story of how he came to be asked to create the Grammy-winning cover and how he created yet another first for this album – the unique cover art created especially for an album.

It's about the Heart
Do you know an anger-filled, joyless Christian who blames every wrong thing in their life on someone else? Do you struggle with marital issues that seem to never get better? How People Change by Timothy S. Lane and Paul David Tripp points the reader to the Gospel in producing lasting change…a change that comes through the heart. While I may point fingers and pray for God to change this situation or that person, the person God is intending to change is me: “God says that what needs change the most is us! He does not just work to fix situations and relationships; he is intent on rescuing us from ourselves. We are the focus of his loving, lifelong work of change.” Have you ever felt God with a scalpel begin to pierce the condition of your heart? I know I have and it is not pleasant at the time but the result is more Christ-likeness. The authors write: “But the Bible teaches again and again that our circumstances don’t cause us to act as we do. They only expose the true condition of our hearts, revealed in our words and actions.” “Our background, relationships, situation and physical condition only provide the opportunity for our thoughts, words, and actions to reveal whatever is already in our hearts. Our hearts are always the ultimate cause of our responses, and where the true spiritual battle is fought.” The authors walk the reader through four concepts to producing lasting heart change: Heat (the trial of an external situation), thorns or fruit (the response of the heart to the trial) and the cross (the new life we have in Christ). “A new lifestyle-the outward fruit of a believer’s life-does not grow out of a stoic obedience to God’s commands, but from a heart that has been captured and captivated by the Giver of those commands.” This was the first book I finished on my 2014 Reading List. It is a must read for those who are tired of their sinful responses and want to understand how to have true heart change.

Gives an actual answer—without feeling cliché. Terrific book.
How People Change is a powerful book. It spells out in simple (not simplistic) terms how people change. It looks at Scripture and quotes from it heavily to make its points. At the center of the process of change is Jesus and the gospel. When we accept what Jesus has done for us and look at him, and continue to look at him throughout our lives instead of just at the moment of our conversion, something monumental shifts. But the shift is so subtle, but so real. I feel like I understand what life with Christ is supposed to look like now. A lot of books promise to give you the secrets to this or that. This book does give you the answer to how people change: it involves repentance no matter life's circumstances PLUS faith in who God is and living out of our new identity as his children. This is one of those books I plan to buy and give to my friends. I want more people to read this to understand what I now understand. This is truly a five star book. It's not a quick read, but wow is it worth it. If you don't read any other book this year, seriously, consider this one. In fact, go ahead, check out the sample of the book right now—if you don't end up buying and reading it, you will be missing out on grace from God in a big way.

Globalization greatly increases leverage over opponents
I'm trying to learn more about China. This book was referenced in a book I read by U.S. General Spalding entitled "War Without Rules." The book was written by two Chinese PLA colonels and published in 1999 so it's about a quarter century old. According to General Spalding the book has been read and considered within the U.S. military. I have the paperback and it's 193 pages, not including a short afterword and some information on the authors' backgrounds. It reads fairly well although I did encounter a few places where I wasn't entirely sure what the book was trying to say. I don't know if this was due to translation challenges or it was just me. I got through the book fairly quickly. My main takeaway was that globalization has offers a potential opponent many more levers to influence the actions of others than simply resorting to kinetic (bombs and bullets) warfare. Economic warfare is certainly possible and in the colonels' view has been resorted to by the West against Asian targets. They view George Soros as a financial terrorist who wreaked havoc on Asian economies in 1998. They describe Soros as a soldier in the wars of tomorrow. Page 191. The inspiration for the book was the First Gulf War. The lesson that the colonels drew from this war was that it was inadvisable to fight the U.S. in a straight-up kinetic war. Finding other ways to fight the U.S. was mandatory. As I write this in January 2024 I wonder if the Chinese military will follow the colonels or if they will resort to traditional kinetic means of fighting if their leadership decides to take Taiwan. On page 120 they describe the new model of warfare as combining the battlefield and non-battlefield exemplified by Schwarzkopf and Soros and Bin Laden and some Chinese that I don't recognize. As they say on page 120 "This then is our real hand of cards." The book also cites a number of Chinese theorists on war, which I think I useful. I've read fairly widely, but my reading has been focused in the West. Also, the authors look at international bodies and how China might use them against the U.S. On page 164 the book argues that warfare is changing from "bloody massacre" and finding expression in "information warfare, financial warfare, and trade warfare". Look at the U.S. response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The colonels' thoughts are worthy of consideration. On page 110 the book observes "continuous coverage by the modern media which very much strengthens the effects of terrorism." If the topic interests you, I recommend the book. The book may be 25 years old, but its message is timely.

Intriguing Challenges and Overblown Rhetoric
This is a useful book to read. The principles of warfare advocated by Sun Tzu say that you must know both yourself and your enemy. This book shows that modern American society is known by the Chinese military. As an exercise in cultural self-understanding alone, reading it pays dividends. However, the topic is strategy. The words used can be relatively confusing at times, not quite embodying the meaning given to them by the authors. Unlimited...but within limits. Unrestricted...but following rules. It can be a bit of a struggle to follow their train of thought and understand their meaning (especially with the writing style, which lacks clarity or organization). Despite this I think it is worth struggling with, and especially with a broad overview of some of the argument to assist. Such a board overview follows. The main point: the United States is prone to think in a manner which intrinsically restricts the conduct of warfare to only a formal military domain; thus it abstracts military action from its location in social domains (politics, economy, information, etc). This fits rather well. We like things to be formulas or mechanistic. We also like to abstract them away into separate ("rigidly distinct") boxes which have no interaction. And so, the military is responsible for military problems and better stay far from anything approaching politics! However, as the authors reveal, this leads to an inability to conduct grander strategy in warfare. So instead: "unrestricted" warfare is to have strategy incorporate considerations (and interactions) within various domains, not only the military domain. Basically it is a rejection of the post-Westphalian concept of the nation-state as the supreme (and exclusive) kind of agent in strategy. This is good. The post-Westphalian idea of the nation-state may be useful in certain contexts and for certain purposes, but it is NOT the comprehensive reality of the universe. To treat it as such is to be blind to much of reality, and to live in a fantasy world. Does North Korea really care that it is "unrecognized" as a nation by us? Nope. Because the nation-state idea simply doesn't describe the order in which NK exists, so much as it describes the order in which Germany exists. This is all well and good. But is it truly revolutionary or new? I don't think so. Clausewitz himself writes that there is no military situation abstracted from the political situation, and politics (in this sense) involves much more than just inter-governmental relations. Rather, I think that we can treat this as a corrective against modern American oversimplifications and reductions, and thus as a "return" to older concepts of strategy and statesmanship. Indeed, they even imitate and follow Clausewitz's guidance on method for determining a theory of warfare which is inductive/a posteriori, rather than deductive/a priori. Unfortunately, the one "modern" example of a war they have to analyze is the Gulf War, and so they relentlessly analyze it alone, perhaps leading to imbalance. And here is where the rhetoric is overblown. This is no "master plan" to destroy America (false advertising). It's not even really new concepts. Rather, it is a (very) forceful reminder against the false (and harmful) modernist sentiments that prevail in America's mode of conducting warfare. In reference to false understandings, the authors actually accuse Americans of "touching the elephant" - an allusion to the tale of "blind men and the elephant" (although this allusion is not made clear in the text, and so is confusing if you have not heard of the tale). It is a parable about believing one has the absolute truth, while only having a limited perspective. Perhaps the authors also touch the elephant in a few ways (bias for helicopters without empirical evidence, a near-religious adoration of the golden ratio, etc.). There's a final point of balance that is perhaps needed. It is easy to either dismiss the Chinese critiques of American society ("we don't worship tech") or take them too seriously ("tech is evil"). Either reaction is problematic. Instead we need to understand that just as in some other areas, there is a rhetorical/political purpose at play. America is being made fun of (which means that the critiques are both based in reality, but also somewhat biased for the sake of local humor). Technology is not evil, and technology is not God. So we need to learn to avoid seeing technological advancement as a replacement for people (this is the error the authors would like to point out). This doesn't mean avoiding technological advancement. There are many lessons to be learned from this book. I'd advise it for all military officers to read. However, I also would advise to temper the expectations and reframe the reader's conception of what the book is: it is an exercise in recovery of some older strategic concepts, not a revolutionary approach to destroying the United States. Get past and ignore the rhetoric and advertising, and take the lessons where they make valid points about where we can be short-sighted in our mindset. But don't discount those lessons because of the wild rhetoric and advertising which surround them. Doing this, you will profit.
