So far the Beatles harmonies version of Goodnight, is my leading reason to buy this set. I'm interested in several other outtakes too of course. I have a feeling the album remix will be nice, but so similar most people wouldn't notice it's a remix. I'm curious about Gently Weeps take 2 also. The as yet undescribed electric take. Also the new Across The Universe mix.
He lives in NJ too, in fact, I told him I'd have him over for a listening session months ago while he was guaranteeing that it would never happen and while I told him it was coming 100%. I even predicted that he'd hear it prior to release Well, it's prior to release, and I have the WA. Offer still stands Schnitz
Glad for you, MW. For the rest of us, there's a thing named Kinfauns Demos Remastered 2016 that I'm honing in on. Much better than my old CDs. Sour Milk Sea Remastered is extended length and easy to find.
I’d never seen it before, but then I wasn’t in the USA in 1968. Hopefully someone on this forum will be able to corroborate or refute this...
I would listen to Stoller. He looks scary! It's the anticipation that's killing me...and reading thru this thread every damn day. Personally I'm starting with the outtakes and I'm ok not reading any spoilers. Personal preference.
Very optimistic of you. I'm still not sure I concur, though! Even when I'm 61. Stay busy, stay busy.... I'm trying.
Wonderful thought, yet I think you know something that even advance reviewers are sworn to secrecy about...
I have the original Vigotone Kinfauns and this is definitely an upgrade of what I had. But now making disks with varieties of remix, Esher and outtakes to stop zeroing in on one disk
Did Giles fly in bits & pieces of different takes and create new versions this way (as his father George did for the anthology project?) I sure hope not.
I will download this one to be certain of having it on the day. I am based in a remoteisland group off the north off Scotland so delivery is kinda unreliable otherwise. Also because i use an ipad/iphone as my only computer sources so copying the cds to listen to as files is not a simple option. Its all cool, I don't see such enquiries as confrontational.
And there is the Kinfauns Demos edition that appeared earlier this year as Mark noted in May, @marklewisohn Young dudes of Wavertree, Toxteth, Woolton & Allerton. Back from all that was India. New songs in heads and notebooks - 23 of them played in George’s self-graffitied bungalow, 50 years back •now•. 4-track one inch tape, acoustic as written. Go. Upgrade circulating. #lifeloveart 12:32 PM - 31 May 2018
Ahhh, a true aficionado I perceive. I've been spinning Unsurpassed Demos by Yellow Dog lo the many years since its '91 release. Also the 7 disc Essential White Album LP by Kip the Kool Kat. Will these old friends be soon forgotten I wonder.
I'm really in shock that the 50th Anniversary of Hey Jude/Revolution came and went without any release. And apparently nothing planned for the upcoming record store day. Last year they did a great job with the new Penny Lane/SFF 45, so I expected the same would happen this year. Very confusing.
Yes, it was when the '09 remasters. It was his son Giles the one who told the story. Giles was perplexed that the remastering team had chosen the remixed Help! and RS for the stereo box out of respect for Martin senior, so he went and asked his dad if he minded, and apparently George M. didn't even remember having remixed them in the 80s. But it was too late, so they decided to include the original mixes of those two in the mono box.
Are you talking about what I always call the *traffic noise sound? I think it’s simlar to one of the loops on Tomorrow Never Knows.
And the 12 cd The History and Synthesis of Western Music, collection of White Album outtakes, etc, and reconstructions to recreate unreleased outtakes
It was asked earlier on in the thread. I have it on a set called "Playback". It's 8 cd's of monitor mixes from '62 - '70. It was recorded the same day as "Brian Epstein Blues" and John's (ahem) song about a duck, both of which were out for years on boot, but "Marahashi" was elusive. It's fairly short, and about the same sound quality as "BE Blues". It wasn't a proper take as such, it was just a rough jam with John singing what is thought to be the original lyrics. I was glad I heard it, but I probably only listened to it a half dozen times in all the years I've had it.
I didn’t realize anyone here was familiar with Kip the Kool Kat. Traded often with him in the early days of the Internet. I remember finding a sealed vinyl Yellow Submarine Songtrack for him, along with an Anthology 3. (I have that 7 disc White Album set as well.)
