Description of With the Beatles:
They still had plenty of covers to fill out the running time, but the Lennon-McCartney writing team was gathering steam and beginning to knock out pop classics as if they were pulling them out of thin air. "All My Loving" and "I Wanna Be your Man" come from this record, issued hurriedly to capitalize on English Beatlemania. But even when they were laying into some classic Chuck Berry, by this time the Beatles had acquired a unique sound in the blend of John's and Paul's voices, while George was coming on by leaps and bounds as a guitar player. While not absolutely essential, as a snapshot of a band in a place and time, With the Beatles is good for a smile. --Chris Nickson
With the Beatles Reviews:
With the Beatles - again 
2009-12-17 - I bought this CD expressly for one song - Money (That's What I Want). But listening to the entire album again I considered that on this album probably more than any of their others, the Beatles were a true rock n' roll band. Money has that raunchy edge in both the instruments and vocals that let you know they could get it on. Roll Over Beethoven is another example of good rock n' roll. I never really appreciated the Beatles when I was growing up, but in recent years I have come to realize just what genius' they really were. They could rock you and then mellow you down with songs like All My Loving. My opinion on them personally was that John and Paul were genius' in writing, but that the ego's in the band were just too much for them to handle. If they could have worked together better there's not telling how many more albums like this one we could have enjoyed.
A must have! 
2009-12-06 - This second offering from the Beatles is a must have for anyone who is a music lover. Classic 1963 at its' best, and with the remastered stereo versions one can hear a few things previously buried in the mono mixes of 1987. I am replenishing my entire collection with the remasters, currently up to Help!, but they do sound warmer and somewhat punchier than the older version. The booklet is also very informative, and the mini-documentary is a nice bonus. Overall, 5-star! Wish they would have included a few outtakes, but knowing the self-imposed standards with which the group worked, didn't really expect to hear unfinished/incomplete recordings.
Great 
2009-11-30 - The Beatles.
Remastered.
What more needs to be said.
I had the American version (The Beatles 2nd Album) of this on vinyl and had digitized it years ago, with this in my collection it is like having a double disc because of the different songs on the 2
Also great in stereo 
2009-11-26 - I was a bit worried about the stereo version, after all what has been written about the limitation of the two tracks recordings. Actually it's very good and makes for a new listening experience if you are used to the mono version.
The album itself is of course damn good. Money and Please Mr Postman are Rock'n Roll at is best !
Worth it for sure !

2009-11-14 - If you listened and enjoyed the original music of the Beatles'; you will certainly enjoy the remixed sounds with all the new toys and gadgets we have today to listen to them with. Great Sound.
