 Baroque Beatles September 28, 2008
It's simply great! You can get this CD for the best opportunity right now! Don't let it go! Singular Beatles music, recorded more 20 years ago!
a long hidden treasure for beatles fans June 4, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
first released in the mid 60s, joshua rifkin's baroque beatles book has long been unavailable and is one that belongs in any serious beatles fans' library. the classical arrangements of early beatles hits never failed to impress those classical music snobs that frequented the record store i worked in when it came out. our favorite trick was to entice them to listen to it on headphones without knowing who it was. it never failed. it's timeless. my favorite track is ""Last Night I Said," Cantata for the Third Sunday after Shea Stadium, MBE 58,000: 1.Chorus: "Last night I said" Please Please Me". nuff'said.
 Classic April 15, 2008
I bought the LP in 1965. Still have it, but no phono. I bought the CD and can enjoy it once again.
Pleasures from the past... March 21, 2008
This was a favorite album from the 60's, lost with all my LP collection as I up-graded to cd's. So it was such a pleasure to find it reissued - and it has retained it's delight. Having introduced my granddaughter to the Beatles, it was great fun to play this cd and have her recognize the underlying tunes.
Rifkin's "Sleeper" February 4, 2008
It's sometimes hard to figure, historically, which came first -- The Baroque Beatles Book, or The Beatles. These arrangements are so convincing and professionally executed, that it's not out of the realm of possibility that Handel could have written them. (This is silly, but that's how much thought and effort went into this production.) I remember this album when it came out in 1965 and bought and admired it then, and I'm buying it now on CD.
