''The Beatles (The Original Studio Recordings)'' – also known as ''The Beatles: Stereo Box'' – is a boxed set compilation comprising all remastered recordings by British rock group the Beatles. The set was issued on 9 September 2009, along with the remastered mono recordings and companion ''The Beatles in Mono'' were also released, along with ''The Beatles: Rock Band'' video game. The remastering project for both mono and stereo versions was led by EMI senior studio engineers Allan Rouse and Guy Massey. The ''Stereo Box'' also features a DVD which contains all the short films that are on the CDs in QuickTime format. This is the second complete boxed set collection of original Beatles recordings after ''The Beatles Box Set'' (1988). Two earlier album collections, ''The Beatles Collection'' (1978) and ''The Collection'' (1982) did not contain all of the Beatles recordings. Although sales were counted as 1 unit for each boxed set sold in the mono and stereo format, total individual sales exceeded 30 million. The boxed set received the Grammy Award for Best Historical Album at the 53rd Grammys. The boxed set was also reissued on vinyl, in 2012. ==Album listing== The sixteen disc collection contains the remastered stereo versions of every album in the Beatles catalogue. The first four albums (''Please Please Me'', ''With the Beatles'', ''A Hard Day's Night'' and ''Beatles for Sale'') made their CD debut in stereo, though most songs from those albums have previously appeared on CD in stereo on various compilations. Both ''Help!'' and ''Rubber Soul'' use the remixes prepared by George Martin for the original 1987 CD releases (the original 1965 stereo mixes were released on ''The Beatles in Mono''). ''Magical Mystery Tour'' is presented in the sequence and artwork of its original North American Capitol Records album release, as opposed to the UK six-song EP. All CDs replicate their original album labels as first released, from the various Parlophone Records variations, to the Capitol Records label (for ''Magical Mystery Tour'') and the UK Apple Records side A label from ''Yellow Submarine'' through ''Let It Be'', and with the side A & side B Apple labels for discs one & two respectively for ''The Beatles''. For ''Past Masters'', disc one uses a mid-1960s Parlophone label design and disc two uses the (side A) Apple label design. Each of the albums except ''Past Masters'' includes a mini-documentary, mainly drawing from ''The Beatles Anthology'' (with a few animated 3D scenarios made up of original photos thrown in), about the album in QuickTime format. ''The Beatles'' and ''Past Masters'' are two-disc sets. *''Please Please Me'' (1963) *''With the Beatles'' (1963) *''A Hard Day's Night'' (1964) *''Beatles for Sale'' (1964) *''Help!''
