NEW LP

New sealed copy. Remastered reissue on 180 gram black vinyl.

Magical Mystery Tour is a record by the English rock band the Beatles that was released as a double EP in the United Kingdom and an LP in the United States. It includes the soundtrack to the 1967 television film of the same name. The EP was issued in the UK on 8 December 1967 on the Parlophone label, while the Capitol Records LP release in the US and Canada occurred on 27 November and features an additional five songs that were originally released as singles that year. In 1976, Parlophone released the eleven-track LP in the UK.

When recording their new songs, the Beatles continued the studio experimentation that had typified Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967) and the psychedelic sound they had pursued since Revolver (1966). The project was initiated by Paul McCartney in April 1967, but after the band recorded the song "Magical Mystery Tour", it lay dormant until the death of their manager, Brian Epstein, in late August. Recording then took place alongside filming and editing, and as the Beatles furthered their public association with Transcendental Meditation under teacher Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

The sessions have been characterised by some biographers as aimless and unfocused, with the band members overly indulging in sound experimentation and exerting greater control over production. McCartney contributed three of the soundtrack songs, including the widely covered "The Fool on the Hill", while John Lennon and George Harrison contributed "I Am the Walrus" and "Blue Jay Way", respectively. The sessions also produced "Hello, Goodbye", issued as a single accompanying the soundtrack record, and items of incidental music for the film, including "Flying". Further to the Beatles' desire to experiment with record formats and packaging, the EP and LP included a 24-page booklet containing song lyrics, colour photos from film production, and colour story illustrations by cartoonist Bob Gibson.

Despite widespread media criticism of the Magical Mystery Tour film, the soundtrack was a critical and commercial success. In the UK, it topped the EPs chart compiled by Record Retailer and peaked at number 2 on the magazine's singles chart (later the UK Singles Chart) behind "Hello, Goodbye". The album topped Billboard's Top LPs listings for eight weeks and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 1969. With the international standardisation of the Beatles' catalogue in 1987, Magical Mystery Tour became the only Capitol-generated LP to supersede the band's intended format and form part of their core catalogue.

Krustonia
Format: Paperback
This was an okay book, with nothing exceptional. Starting the book off with "Krustonia" was a big mistake, as it's easily the worst Simpsons comic ever. Once you start reading it, it gets boring, so take my advice, read everything else first, then come back to this one, since I lost enthusiasm after struggling to complete Krustonia for several days. That said, Homer's wresting days are really funny, the Smithers clones are strange, but somehow very entertaining. (Mr. Burns better watch out :) and Homer as Radioactive Man was great, especially to see Leon "Michael Jackson" Komposki back. I also liked the mini-Ned Flanders mystery, and the guide to comic book conventions. If it weren't for Krustonia, this book would be the perfect buy.

Perfect For Game Developers w/ Some Experience Wishing To Learn Unreal Fast
Format: Kindle
Rachel Cordone’s Unreal Engine 4 Game Development Quick Start Guide is the perfect book for people with some programming chops, or users of other engines (like Unity), that want to get up to speed quickly with Unreal. I really liked how the author does not waste time explaining basic things (like what functions or variables are) and jumps to the practical steps for getting things working. Unreal experience is not required at all, though you should have some foundation of how programming works to get the most out of the text. Most of the book is using Blueprints, the built-in visual scripting language of UE4. I’m a huge fan of Blueprints, and visual scripting in general, and you can accomplish many things, even a whole game, without touching C++. However, Rachel does show how to use C++ and interface with Blueprints code (very handy). Within the book, the author explains each step along the way to accomplish various things, along with screenshots of the Blueprints, making everything easy to follow. Some of the topics covered include: the basics of navigating the editor, using variables, functions, events, and creating a Blueprint from scratch. Adding C++ to a Blueprint project. Creating menus and HUDs with UMG, animation, scripting AI, multiplayer, and optimization. Definitely not an exhaustive list, but a good range of information to get a feel for how powerful Unreal is and how to quickly start working with it. So far, I’ve only read maybe a couple other Unreal books, but I think I can say this is the best I’ve seen. While some other books are longer and more in depth, as this one only clocks in at just under 200 pages, I feel like the brevity helps keep things focused. While you’re not creating Grand Theft Auto here, the simple demo built in the book is functional and teaches the basics of how you would make a game in Unreal. This is a case where the title of the book is very apt and honest. This is a “quick start” guide for game developers not familiar with Unreal Engine 4, but maybe that have experience with Unity or some other engine or framework. I think if you are a complete beginner, you might want to read up on basic programming concepts first, though the book is simple enough you could probably just jump in if you really wanted. For people with experience elsewhere, this is perfect to get up to speed with Unreal fast. I can’t recommend this book enough.

I went from start to finish on this book and feel more than comfortable with the basics of this platform. If I can do it, so can journalists.
