Rubber Soul was the Beatles’ sixth studio album, and it saw the band getting more experimental as they grew up (and faced a tight deadline). “It’s an album born out of frustration of not wanting to be little boys anymore,” Giles Martin, son of the Beatles’ producer George, tells Rolling Stone. “It has so much depth to it. This is the first album where they weren’t trying to write a bunch of singles and deciding what should be the single.”

The new box set delivers all 14 original tracks in stereo, mono, and Dolby Atmos formats. Martin and engineer Sam Okell also used the “de-mixing” audio technology developed for Peter Jackson’s Get Back documentary to significantly improve the recording quality without losing any of its original character.

The Rubber Soul Super Deluxe Edition follows a series of other Special Editions that Apple Corps Ltd and UMG have released over the last several years, including Sgt. Pepper in 2017, the White Album in 2018, Abbey Road in 2019, Let It Be in 2021, Revolver in 2022, and Anthology in 2025.
