In the four years since deluxe versions of the Beatles‘ “Revolver” were released, there hasn’t been much debate over what stood at the top of most fans’ wish lists: similar treatment given to “Rubber Soul,” the album that preceded “Revolver” in the group’s mid-1960s chronology. With just a little bit of delayed gratification, that hope is coming to fruition, as UMG and Apple Corps will be issuing remixes, expanded editions and boxed sets to commemorate the 1965 classic on Oct. 2.
