Just wondering if anyone had ever reviewed and compared the new Giles Martin mix with the original mix.
Or perhaps an interview with Giles , where he may have discussed changes that were made.
The differences seem quite subtle to me.
For example - The mix on Two Of Us the guitars were centered or the drums were louder.
I haven't noticed anything that really stands out differently.

I think I've listened only a few times so far. Thankfully it's a very conservative remix. The original mix was very good to start with the exception of "Across the Universe" and "The Long and Winding Road".

imo spector did a great job in mixing, choosing the right versions and giving it a live flow. this talk bout he ruined the album is rubbish. in the 80ies when I started collecting bootlegs, the glyn johns version was somewhat the holy grail for a get back album, but to be honest, its not good in comparison to spectors version. the beatles rejected one version after another, so no more evidence needed who did the better job regardless pauls complaining bout tlawr. spectors mixdown was so good, stereo was already the standard, that there was no obvious reason for giles to change it very much.
