Re: Harry And His Box Set (V1, 2, 7, 10, 12, 15, 14 update.)

Thank you for clarifying. So now it appears there are at least 3 different edits of that chat: (TG, TOTP, and Live at the BBC) none of them complete on their own. Very interesting. Top Of the Pops was made by the BBC Transcription Service. They would study the forthcoming domestic programme schedul...

Re: Harry And His Box Set (V1 update)

Thanks for the updated volume 1. Someday, we'll find an old reel-to-reel tape featuring their earliest BBC appearances. SOMEONE else had to have taped them!

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

....As for Eqing and the like. Of Course he used EQ Funny, his drops were always proclaimed as completely flat transfers with no added EQ. There was that big debate on the 910, where Brainwashed was vehemently denying that Ebbets used EQ of any kind. Yes, I did support Ebbett's back then, but over ...

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

The songs She Loves You, I Want To Hold Your Hand, I Feel Fine, Michelle, Can't Buy Me Love and Yesterday from the mono DESS collection of oldies all sync perfectly to rips of those tracks from the CD EP box set. We Can Work It Out syncs to the rip from the CD Singles box set. There are EQ differen...

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

It's all about what sounds good to your ears. That's what we learnt in audio engineering class. The two best tools we have are our ears. If you like the way it sounds, then what else do you need to know? I'd think twice about throwing a bunch of stuff away because someone said it was bunk. Does it ...

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

Maybe this will help clarify things. I found an interview I did with him back in 2009 and he says: "Were all of the Ebbetts titles mastered from vinyl (as opposed to tape)? Well, in the early days, I did source almost primarily from vinyl. To be clear, when I say “the early days,” I mean the l...

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

Unfortunately Ron, there are DESS discs that have tracks sourced from other discs or LP's. Seems it was a copy and paste job when better sources were available. How often was this done? Who knows, but there are examples of this being done on actual DESS CD's. I would be curious how your mono "...

Re: Dr.Ebbet - what is the truth about his CD reissues?

I have originals, test discs, and original artwork for most of the catalog. Let me know if any are needed for a new Beatlegdb project. Ron So are you able to upload a bona fide genuine mono Ebbetts version of "Oldies" please? I'll go through the boxes in the morning 11/28/23 (East Coast U...
