Comments: The 2009 remixes made specifically for the computer game "Rockband".
Sgt. Pepper's Rockband Mixes contains the whole Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Club Band LP extracted from the video game.
Released at the same time as the remastered catalogue by EMI, the sound quality of these tracks is outstanding.
And like the others from the video game contains some studio chat before each of the songs.

Other manufacturers of this boot such as MisterClaudel have been known to add bonus material such as a short, twenty minute radio spot hosted by Gary Crowley on the BBC discussing the Beatle remasters.
It would be a nice bonus to have because without it this disc comes in quite short.
However, this is a nice disc to have as the sound quality is superb and it’s very enjoyable hearing the studio banter before the tracks.
The artwork is again very simple, it does come with an 8-page booklet which just contains seven photographs.
