James F. ★★★★★

The Sessions discs alone are worth it — hearing early takes of "Norwegian Wood" fall into place is genuinely wild. The 7" single is a nice little bonus tucked in the box, and the pressing sounds clean with barely any surface noise.

Jacob H. ★★★★★

The half-speed mastering really shows on this pressing — the acoustic guitar on "Norwegian Wood" sounds crisp without any harshness. I've owned a couple of earlier reissues and this is the cleanest I've heard the stereo mix sound.

Emma ★★★★★

The Sessions discs are the real draw here — hearing the early takes of these songs shift and change is fascinating. The 7" single is a nice touch too, and the whole box feels sturdy without being a pain to slide off the shelf.
