(Gibson) EMI has announced that the classic Beatles collections, 1962-1966 and 1967-1970, will be remastered and released October 15th.

The two double-disc sets, better known as the "Red" (1962-1966) and "Blue" (1967-1970) albums, will include an expanded booklet with original liner notes, rare pictures of the Fab Four and written essays by Bill Flanagan, the editorial director and senior vice president at VH1.

When they were released in 1973, the "Red" and "Blue" albums were the first compilations of the band's music since their break-up three years before. The collections were assembled by manager Allen Klein and were approved by the band themselves. The collection of early material rose to #3 on both the U.S. and U.K. charts, while the latter-era collection hit #2 in England and #1 in the States. - more on this story
