the people that ask this guy "why is he preserving MY culture" are stupid. It's music. It's a kind of language, it's a kind of love, it's an art. It transcends culture. Music is not just for one culture. it is for human kind. People should appreciate this passion. The collector is very impressive.

The Beatles master tapes are in a climate controlled vault at Abbey Road Studios.

He’s one step away from owning the original band members to play in the room for him. “Ahh yes, vinyl wasn’t pure enough… nor were the master recordings… so I have Paul here… he’s gonna play for us today. Don’t screw this up Paul. I want crisp, clear notes ringing out.”

I 100% guarantee he does NOT have a master tape. Those are locked in a vault at EMI and are priceless. What he probably has is a production master that was used to create the vinyl pressings. They can sound amazing especially if you use them to make half-speed copies like Mobile Fidelity. Still, a very cool collection.

I wouldn't have ever thought "why is he preserving my culture". I just think it's great he's got so much love for good music.

I don't know about master tape but I once heard vinyl through a high end Linn system and it literally took my breath away. I couldn't believe how detailed and real the sound was.

Wonder if this guy really thinks he has the ‘Yesterday’ master tape. Or was it just a misinterpretation by the journalist.

He does not have the Beatles master tapes. What he has are likely the copies or dubs of the masters (or safety masters)
