It's a smart approach; pretty neatty.

I remember like one year ago someone posting a piano rendition of Happy Xmas (War Is Over If You Want It) using John's vocal from the studio version but with just piano. Unfortunately the rest of the track was kind of out-of-tempo; but the intro with John's voice and this piano just gave me the chills. An tear dropping intro.
Was it your mix ? Happy Xmas John' Vocals - Instrumental cover (Maroon 5) - I suppose that Maroon 5 is a keyboard which emulates grand piano sound.
But here this was not an attempt on converting John's guitar to MIDI, it was a "traditional" backing track done by the remixer.
For some reason I had good luck with the midi conversion on that track, with other attempts the results have been less than stellar. When I have time I'd like to figure out how to make this technique work better.

The Happy Xmas mix was not done by me but I've heard it and quite enjoy it !

I think it's referring to this cover (hXXps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urN9dzCnHiU) by a pop band called Maroon 5.

1. What Is Life (Remix of take 1)

3. In The Place Where I Was Born (Remix of demo)

Good for a week:

New version of Cry Baby Cry:
hxxps://we.tl/t-l2huHcCYjn

Swapped out the vocal flub and new mix
Well, I really enjoyed the "In The Place Where I Was Born" remix of the demo. Could you please tell me more about the backing-track ? is it you playing ?
"Cry Harder Baby (Remix of Cry Baby Cry rehearsal)" was one of my favorite new track from the White Album box set; this bluesy guitar which reminds me Booker T. sound, especially Steve Cropper guitar's bluesy style.
Here, is it me, or is there a kind of "Portishead" (their very first famous single "Glory Box" if I remember well the name of this song) ?

I did to hear so far (just discovered the download link the "New version of Cry Baby Cry")
Probably it was a remix from our good friend Sologui.
Ale.

Absolutely my dear friend Alessandro

Here is this song that I remixed for Christmas 2021
and a bonus:
A new version, more intimate, with only John and Yoko (without the choirs) and the piano only as an instrument :)

Happy New Year

- Happy Xmas John' Vocals - Piano cover Only (Maroon 5)
- Happy Xmas John' Vocals - Instrumental cover (Maroon 5)

I like the version of Cry Baby Cry
For the others I am less playful, the use of a midi track captured from a song is quite tricky, some notes are missing or wrong. It is then necessary to be an expert musician or to have perfect pitch to correct these defects.
I tried to remix from a midi track, but I was never won over
I commend your work though theboxinargentina (a french not resentful :))
