If you want to hear the Beatles before they became the true rock icons that they are, before the experimentation and vast progress, right when they were building that bridge, then you will definitely want to buy Rubber Soul. It's definitely worth whatever you would have to pay for. It's an essential album from an essential band.

First off, this is NOT an audiophile review. I am reviewing this release from a purely aesthetic point of view. This stereo RUBBER SOUL mini LP SHM-CD is quite nice. The laminated mini LP cover is excellent. Overall, it's visually identical to the Mono Box version. What caused me to deduct a star from my review is the one flaw many of the mini LPs in this set unfortunately feature. When looking at the album from the back cover, it is apparent that the folded flipback flaps were not glued as flawlessly as the mono counterpart. A slight misalignment causes gaps in the corners and a spine that just isn't as perfect as the mono version. Not a major drawback, but disappointing nonetheless. On a positive note, this encore release features a resealable outer sleeve with a blue sticker (as opposed to the 1st pressing red sticker), a nice OBI, the 2009 booklet identical to the one released with the digipak version, and an additional booklet with song lyrics in English. Also included is a rice paper sleeve and the reproduced paper sleeve to house the disc itself, as it was with the original UK-released album. The actual disc features a reproduced PARLOPHONE lable. Overall, a good collectable.
Rubber Soul , like all of the other 2014 BEATLES Japanese SHM-CDS look and sound amazing. There are NO defects on the packaging. Yes , they are made of card board but they are double or more folded with the usual plastic / paper inserts. The CDS do not fall out easily at all. All of the double albums are folded even more. You get all of the ordinal LP goodies in mini LP size. That is a real bonus for mini LPS like The BEATLES [The White Album] and Sargent Peppers. As for the sound , it is nothing short of incredible and they sound much better than the 2009 remasters. Beware of some people who write that they didn't even like the 2009 remasters. These Japanese SHM-CDS are louder , cleaner and clearer than the 2009 remasters which I really liked but these do sound much better. Just try 1 on these BEATLES SHM-CDS and find out for yourself.
