Albums: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Magical Mystery Tour, The Beatles (The White Album) These albums represent the peak of multi-layered bouncing, where four-track machines were synced together, burying generations of audio tape under layers of overdubs. 320 kbps MP3s handle these complex frequencies reasonably well, but the dense orchestral swells of "A Day in the Life" or the chaotic avant-garde collages of "Revolution 9" expose lossy limitations. The extreme high-end frequencies of brass instruments and the deep resonance of Paul McCartney’s Rickenbacker bass lose a fraction of their separation, occasionally blending together during chaotic musical passages. 4.
