L’album bianco (il famoso White Album – dal titolo THE BEATLES) fu pubblicato in Inghilterra il 22 novembre 1968. Alla fine di maggio del 1968 i Beatles si incontrarono a Kinfauns, il bungalow di George Harrison ad Esher. Appena tornati dall’India, prima di andare a registrare ad Abbey Road e iniziare il loro prossimo album, i Fab Four suonarono alcuni brani in acustico sul nuovo registratore a bobina Reex-to-reel di George. (i famosi nastri di Esher).
Il cofanetto Super Deluxe Edition sarà disponibile il 9 novembre 2018 e conterrà 6CD + 1 Blu-ray.
