Re: The Red and Blue Albums in the UK Album Chart

a funny detail to the red and blue. the beatles stay in the uk charts at nr 2 and 3 behind taylor swift. the reason is as funny as absurd. the count the sales of the albums separately to the sales of both albums in the box set :). hard to beat in terms of absurdity when u think that the box costs th...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

I pretty much agree with these comments. Especially now I find it hard to believe that back in '65 they thought voices on one side instruments on the other side was a good mixing strategy. thats not in its entirety correct. when u listen to beatles for sale and help, the voices are in the middle. i...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

I believe the best mix was already made by George Martin, and it was used on the "Love" album. All they needed to do was remove the mash-up segues and give us that one. Granted, Martin pushed up the volume on his score, but it has wonderful separation throughout. I thought the love album ...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

listened to walrus on spotify. the end is really a bit of a mess. I can´t understand why giles is changing so much. for me remixing just means putting the instruments in the right place. voice, bass and rythm section in the middle, the rest left or right. so as the band stands on stage in front of u...

Re: Now and then, number one in the UK.

As far as I remember, PPM was no. 1 on the most well-known and best-publicized charts of the day, but only made no. 2 on the Record Retailer chart, a trade mag with fewer returns shops so considered less accurate than the others. PPM was widely celebrated as the Fabs' first chart topper I read that...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

I don't really understand why people are complaining that these new mixes don't sound like the originals. I quite like the new mixes and find them much easier to listen to than the old stereo mixes. Don't know if it's just because I'm younger but when I see people complaining about them replacing h...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

If I Need Is Someone, I'm Only Sleepin, This Boy and Oh Darling are borderline. We don't have to please anyone, we have to be honest and put only the best. By the same token, they should have included Ringo's Don't Pass My By to make him a little bit happier... I'm just saying that they're no longe...

Re: Red & Blue Albums

He should have let an actual pig work on it. He was given access to some of the best-recorded, most loved catalogue of songs ever, and he made it into the shittiest load of badly-remixed shit with a lousy feeling to it. When I heard it I puked. - Jon Lemon, Strolling Home, 2023. The Blue Album 2023...
