“THE Beatles Live at the Hollywood Bowl,” a 1977 live album containing material from the Beatles’ Hollywood Bowl concerts in August 1964 and August 1965, is coming back in an expanded release globally Sept. 9 on CD and digital download for the first time, it was announced Wednesday by The Beatles’ Apple Corps’ Ltd. and Universal Music Group. A 180-gram vinyl release will follow Nov. 18.

    The new package, a companion release to the new Ron Howard film “The Beatles: Eight Days a Week: The Touring Years,” includes all the tracks of the 1977 album plus four additional unreleased songs and a 24-page booklet with an essay by music journalist David Fricke. The cover photo for the album, also on the poster for the film, was taken by the group’s U.S. tour manager Bob Bonis on Aug. 22, 1964, as they boarded a chartered flight in Seattle to Vancouver, B.C., for their first concert in Canada.

    Wednesday’s announcement said the new release is sourced from the original three-track tapes of the concerts, which have been remixed by producer Giles Martin and engineer Sam Okell at Abbey Road Studios. It was Martin’s father, Sir George Martin, who produced the original album.

    The original 1977 version of “The Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl” was assembled from two group shows in 1964 and 1965 and released on album in 1977. It was never, however, released on legitimate CD.(SD-Agencies)
