The Beatles have released an official new video for the closing classic track from their Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album, A Day In The Life.
The digitally restored video precedes this week’s 15th anniversary re-release of their collection of chart-toppers called “1”.
The 27-track permutation, containing a single CD of every UK and US #1 between 1962 and 1970, will also include a DVD with 50 restored promotional films and videos the band dubbed “mini movies – many of which were never commercially released.
A skilled team of video technicians made the old footage come back to life using advanced digital enhancement to produce 4k resolution.

The most lavish packages, called “1+”, will contain alternate versions and rare mini movies, including the original video for ‘A Day in the Life’ – shown below.
As well, the two surviving Beatles, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr offer exclusive commentary and pre-recorded forewords for many of the Blu-ray’s videos, which are accompanied by a 124-page illustrated, hardbound book.

In a statement issued by McCartney via Mashable, he said; “These videos and films are spectacular reminders of the era we lived in.”
‘1’ and ‘1+’ will be available on November 6, just a week behind the album’s original release in 2000 (It was also re-issued in September of 2011).
