i went to one of those shows that are all about memories the other year, and the last act was one John Farnam. That guy was a pro entertainer.

Someone yelled "Sing The Voice!" and he laughed and said "if i do it too early i know you'll all just piss off straight afterwards"

Sorry I couldn’t get past Sadie the cleaning lady

After watching (most of) the Peter Jackson Beatles Doco (discussion is in Documentaries thread) I was curious about the different mixes of the tracks available (see also Rick Beato on youtube)

Not being an avid Beatles fan I didn't really know the backstory and how this album was meant to be somewhere between 'live' at a show and 'live' in the studio without overdubs. Infact some of the base recordings used were performances from the rooftop show.

Anyway there is now a 'super deluxe' issue of the album that has many of the different mixes from over the years.

You get some practice takes, the original Glyn Johns mixes, a couple he then had a second crack at when Apple (the label) decided they didn't like them. You also get some of the 2011 stripped back stuff which I think is the Spector versions with overdubs and strings removed and some new versions done by Giles Martin (George's son) which keep the overdubs but tone them down.

If you are interested in this stuff have a listen to 'Long and Winding Road' for a good example of how much the mix can change the song. I grew up hearing the schmaltzy Phil Spector version which was MoR radio fodder and tbh it coloured my perception of the band.
The rehearsal versions are a bit rough but the Glyn Johns original mix (IMO) is great. It lets the others in the band shine, has clearer drums and is a way better picture of the dynamics of the band at that time. It sounds more like a rock band doing a ballad than an overproduced slice of cheese.
