Re: The Beatles And Harry At The Beeb
I believe I asked LR about that early on here, and he had an explanation.beatlesondvd wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 8:19 am Dear Lord Reith,
While sorting out my collection, I noticed that the version of 'From Me to You' on Disc 1 of the three-disc set 'BBC Broadcasts 1962-1964 (Joe Pope Reels)' sounds clearer than the one you included in your set. Was that a deliberate decision, or did you overlook it?

No, there's no clear versions of any of those recordings. They just have different speeds and degrees of hiss. If you speed something up and add hiss, it can create the illusion that it is brighter.beatlesondvd wrote: ↑Sat Jan 06, 2024 8:19 am Dear Lord Reith,

The George Martin Pop Profile is completely new. I like hearing George talk this early on because it is before all the Pepper stuff and we get a better sense of how he really saw them. Songwriters Extraordinary I advise you to skip until you've listened to the complete interview on the next volume.

Massimo - the Great Dane box is probably the item I'm proudest of in my collection - bought it 20+ years back and will NEVER sell. Thank youmassimo wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 9:38 pm Thank you so much Lord Reith!!!
It's unbelievable to listen to these songs, you did an incredible job, the sound quality is really amazing!!!
Back in 1994 when I did all the work for the Great Dane box, trying to recover all the available tracks in the best possible quality, I would never think that such a quality could be reached.
And for me, having been in the BEEB world for so many years, it's an incredible joy to listen to the tracks now, in this quality, and so complete!.
Thank you and have a great 2024!
Massimo
Re: The Beatles And Harry At The Beeb
Am I correct that volume 1 seems to be formatted differently, with the audio split into just two files as opposed to individual tracks? Thanks.

No. It's split into 60 tracks - formatted exactly the same as the rest of the series.
