Sergeant Pennys Dilema

They gather the pay scales of 15 comparable size cities and add each position up. In fact, no city employee was going to get a raise. They wanted to use that money to pay down insurance costs for all the city employees. Again, the officers, wanting to do right by all the employees, said yes. The city said they would be able to revisit raises by April. That brings us to where we are now. They only had a portion and wanted to pay a one time stipend again.

The officers would still be at the present step in pay and that pay amount would not be reflected in their paychecks, but would be for tax purposes. And, you can just bet that when the city came back to renegotiate the next contract, the starting point would be where the officers are now, not where they should be now. With the extensions and the freezes, some officers could very well be as many as five or six steps behind where they should be at this point in time.

The officers have negotiated for raises, and in doing so, have given up certain things and have taken on other things in order to get those raises. The rest of the city employees have negotiated nothing, given up nothing and taken on nothing extra, but they have benefited from our contracts with the city each year. The officers have always been told that the council wanted all the employees to reach that 95 percentile mark and the officers have done their part over and over to allow the city to reach that mark for all the employees.

All the officers want is to be treated as valued employees, to be treated fairly. Now, the city is saying that sales tax revenue is down for the last 24 months. The immediate 24 months before that? If so, I can believe that, but again, let me remind everyone, when we started this contract, the oil business was booming but that boom has stalled.

Yes the sales tax revenue has decreased in the last 24 months from the previous 24 months. Mansfield worked with Stevenson's publisher, Longmans, to launch legal actions against unauthorized adaptations. Bandmann's production opened as scheduled on August 6, but after just two performances it was closed due to legal action by Longmans.

I really hope they will go back to the more aggresive approach of the Anthology surround mix. I love that mix and was therefore so disappointed in the lackluster 5. The Anthology mix brought tears to my eyes when I first heard it, and still does sometimes. Listen to Strawberry Field Forever, and Something, for example, really powerful. Having said that, looking very much forward to alternative versions and a good upgraded documentary. Some tracks work better than others. Is this going to be the new stereo mix of Penny Lane?

The listing says the Strawberry Fields mix was done in and Penny Lane I read that there were a few very minor errors with the Penny Lane mix to do with fade-in on piano overdubs which goes some way to explaining why they have redone that mix e. It also looks as if the stereo remaster will remain available. I was concerned that the new remixed version of Pepper might replace the original, they did something similar with the 1 album when they remixed the tracks from that for the late release.

Minor criticisms for what looks like an excellent box. Paul, once I heard the news on the radio this morning, I struggled to find a comprehensive track-list for this Sergent Pepper Super Deluxe Edition, on the Internet. Then you published this article. Thank god this site exists!! Why is the Carnival of Light track not on this box set? A track called Anytime was also recorded during the Pepper sessions, mainly featuring Ringo. Side 3 1 Sgt. Without checking, I think it comes from the John Barrett tapes, but I might be wrong. I reckon this is just the start. The 2CD option sounds ok for me.

Can we assume the hi-res stereo is the new remix? So if the Beatles recorded onto all 4 tracks then bounced down to 1 on another machine, that 4 track tape still exists. I will try to answer question 4. By this point in the Beatles career, most of the session tapes and overdub tapes were preserved. This means that in addition to the original 4 track recordings, every step of the mix down process was preserved. In order to add overdubs, the original 4 track tape was mixed down to one track remember, the original mixes were designed for mono onto a new four track tape leaving three blank new tracks.

These three tracks would be discrete from the original 4. Using digital technology, the original 4 tracks could be synched with any additional discrete tracks to make a new multitrack recording that could be mixed together anew. They simply mixed all the music into one track and overdubbed all the vocals on the other. After The Break-Up , and thus have an appreciation for what they did, etc….

Not a dumb question at all. Jason Brown Not a dumb question. As someone else posted earlier, quality-wise it is in the bottom half of their catalogue. Revolver and Rubber Soul would make for some very interesting and enjoyable sets. Anyone else not buying this? Amazon IT again for the win! Regardless of the redundancy, Thanks again for doing the leg work, Paul.

I read this news today, Oh boy. Lots of sites reporting this news today, but only yours carrying the practical info letting your readers know how to get it most affordably, for which I am most appreciative. Thanks as always, Paul! The seven-notes-extra-at-the-end of Penny Lane were previously presented on the U. The Pepper box set will finally give us the original Capitol mix. Plenty of UK sources currently much cheaper than Amazon on the Deluxe set but as Paul says their price will probably come down.

San Angelo LIVE!

This would have been perfect with Carnival of light. Also some of the outtakes were on Anthology 2. Overall looks like an impressive set. Just out of curiosity, why is Apple shooting themselves in the foot about a possible MMT set a personal gripe for you? I would prefer stereo but seems everything was mixed for mono by the band for the finished album and then left to others to do the stereo version.

Pepper Sessions on 13—14 February ? Kite on February 17 and they taped nine takes of the rhythm track, four of which were complete. Pepper Sessions, but it shines by its absence… Well, nothing is perfect! I have had superb service from Amazon Italy, mega quick delivery and great packaging.

I have no qualms about ordering this. Although expensive, this is what a super deluxe edition should look like. I think the folks at Apple got this one perfect. Sir Paul should the embarrassed by the price and configuration of Flowers in the Dirt. If you compare the quality and quantity of the music, forgetting about the superior configuration of Sgt. Pepper is really a bargain compared to Flowers in the Dirt. I imagine that Flowers in the Dirt will soon be selling at half price soon.

I agree with R. Naud, they should have released a sde version of revolver, the beatles best album! You know, to push fans to streaming? Since, you know, wave of the future and whatnot? By recombining the elements from the pre-mixdown tapes still held by Abbey Road. Hi Caroline, A 5. It is after all the album that has constantly topped those Best Albums of All Time these past 10 years. Both are very colourful pieces of work and undoubtedly. Exactly what I thought when I heard about this yesterday. Bit of a missed opportunity there to celebrate Revolver last year.

Some lovely moments of George Martin listening to isolated tracks. Hopefully this version included all the old Yellow Pages and Carling Black Label adverts inbetween too — in new stereo! This was my first Beatles album on cd when I first received it in for my 11th birthday — and what a summer that was with that.

The documentary looks like it was shot yesterday although that was 25 years ago already. Of course — us fans of the bootlegs will have a few more outtakes of these songs — the quality we will receive these new mixes will be incredible. Are the tracks on the 2nd discs of the vinyl and CD also on the box set? True, and a very nice box for Magical Mystery Tour also, but those were more for visual content and not really music box sets.

This really is the first deluxe set for a Beatles album, similar to the ten Paul McCartney sets. It is pretty cool and I hope there might be a few more to come from the Beatles in the next few years. Good news, but then they could hardly be less adventurous. The rumours started about this release yesterday as Amazon US broke the embargo. I sat watching the Steve Hoffman forum last night as the details were discovered. It was really exciting as it was first announced that there would be a 6 disc boxset but no one at that stage thought there would be any unrelased material, then someone posted the picture showing the discs and the word Sessions was spotted on two of them and slowly through the evening the details were discovered until the video showing the box set was posted… and it was game over.

Why have theyt left it so long. Probably in years time they will be releasing the multi tracks and kids will be mixing their own version of the album. Really looking forward to getting the Making of Sgt. Pepper on Blu-ray as my VHS copy is very worn. This, by the way was made in and not as has been reported a few times.

This programme was made as a test run for the Anthology… but it also inspired the makers to create the Classic Album series. Agreed that there is a sense of sadness for those who will not be able to hear this version, but they did have the great experience to anticipate and then hear this music when it was first released.

And who knows, if heaven is heaven, then those folks probably already have this one! I saw it there last summer.!! Apple looks like they have gotten this right! This appears to be a worthy super deluxe edition! My box is ordered! White Album next year please! At least all of the bonus content was NOT made as a download only…. If ever there was an opportunity for another Beatles box set book it was this one…disappointing.

I agree, especially if Paul supervised both at the same time I know he gets absolute say on his solo stuff but he still gets a big say in Beatles boxes!! Very happy with the Super Deluxe box contents. Is this a one-off unlikely or will other Beatles albums become available as Super Deluxe Editions in due course?

Whither White Album and Abbey Road 5. This album broke the mould of pop music, smashed it into many pieces and then put it in a blender. Just wish that I was old enough to hear it when it originally came out. This looks great — I am a Beatles fan, but not a completist. I will probably plump for the 2CD. To my ears and understanding , stereo is an improvement, but a lot of people seem to prefer mono.

The stereo mix, on the other hand, was completed in three days, while the band were off doing other things. Thanks for the hustle on the price from Italy. Say the blu Ray is Region A, They have yet to confirm this though. Ugh, please disregard the grammatical errors in my previous post. This is a comprehensive overview from Paul — well done sir. It can respect the characteristics of the latest remaster but it will be a different one. It was also included on the Rarities LP: Wonder if this is the real Capitol mono mix or one reconfigured by Giles?

They still sound off. There should have been a DVD and a Blu-ray 5 disc box set since they are identical. That being said, I will start saving now for Abbey Road in 3 years!

John Wanamaker

Either you have a Blue-ray player or DVD. Oh I see…you can charge more cash for six discs than five! Agreed, one of worst stereo mixes of all time. Totally ruined the entire catalog. I just kept my old copies and bought the mono box. Hoorah — I can buy this without the usual for me I appreciate! Thank you EMI …. Paul, I watched the promotional video of Sgt. Pepper SDE posted on Amazon. Given that, it appears to me that the outer dimensions of the box would have to be at least inches square to accommodate the package configuration: I am not used to all this positivity on here… I have to say this does look value at the Amazon Italy price.

Looks wonderful, some excellent thought an attention paid and something for everyone. Super Deluxe duly ordered from Italy. But, what a terrific shame that they did not include the Carnival of Light. The last unreleased Beatles composition, of sorts song does not seem to be the right word. If there was a release on which to include the recording, this would surely have been the most appropriate.

Waiting for the price drop on this one. Given what happened with the Floyd box which I did pay full price for I think my patience may be rewarded. The release date is 26 May so you would probably want to cancel it if you need to by say around 23rd or 24th May at the latest. As a guide with pre-orders they can ship a few days early, or sometimes on release day, or even sometimes a day or two afterwards. With pre orders I would like Amazon to deliver to my door 6 am May 26th.

I actually discovered a misplaced in the bins early Brainwashed at Kmart I thanked my lucky stars, since an E. DVD was above it. ETs magic finger was pointing to it. I kind of freaked. I think i will definitely order the sde when the price goes down on amazon. Are they trying to copy dfs?? Just thought it would be interesting hearing it in the context of the album it was originally recorded for before George made the MUCH better decision to add Within You Without You instead.

That one had mono on the Blu-ray, but no 5. Interesting… thanks, as always, SDE for the heads up. This maybe premature to ask but, does anyone know if there are plans to release the blu-ray separately? Ideally, with all the content of this Super Deluxe Edition included, i. The content is the same on the DVD and blu-ray, but the latter will offer lossless 5. You know that really gets my goat that some session tracks were already released. First of all the price, for what the box costs, all should be previously unreleased. As if they only had 2 takes to choose from. I personally would like to hear plenty of the jam sessions when they were pounding out a tune.

Perhaps they were wiped back then.
