Hours of Darkness

Post by studio2 »

Stumbled on this on-line, it's a couple of years old but not seen it shared here.
Maxwell Edison Records

mega.nz/folder/VIoTAQoA#m1VMjV7ODztRVUbTQruPrg

Disc 1: THE BEST PART OF BREAKIN’ UP. The De-Spector-ed Edition of the Let It Be Album.
This is a replica, as near as exact as possible, of the Phil Spector album, but without any choir or orchestra.

Disc 2: MUSIC FROM BIG PINK. The Best of the Twickenham Studio Rehearsals.

Disc 3: THE BASEMENT TAPES. The Best of the Apple Studio Sessions.

Disc 4: LOADED. The Best of the Rest of the Let It Be Sessions.

Disc 5: BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER. Acoustic and Demo Performances from the Let It Be Sessions.

Disc 6: KICK OUT THE JAMS. Famous and Infamous Let It Be Improvisations.

Disc 7: EVERYBODY KNOW THIS IS NOWHERE. More Non-Album Highlights of the Let It Be Sessions.

Disc 8: LAST TIME AROUND. More Outtake Highlights of Songs Destined For the Let It Be Album.

Disc 9: A COLLECTION OF BEATLES OLDIES. The Beatles Cover The Beatles, and Other Highlights.

Disc 10: IN SEARCH OF THE LOST CHORD. More Highlights of the Beatles Covering the Oldies.

Disc 11: AN EAR TO THE SOUNDS OF OUR HISTORY (Part One). A Spoken Word Documentary of the Let It Be Sessions.

Disc 12: AN EAR TO THE SOUNDS OF OUR HISTORY (Part Two). A Spoken Word Documentary of the Let It Be Sessions.
Ends with a stereo edit of the Rooftop Concert.

Disc 13: SILVER APPLES. The De-Spector-ed Special Edition of the Let It Be Album.
Same idea as the first disc, except some of Spector’s “mistakes” are corrected, such as using the 31 January master take of The Long & Winding Road instead of the 26 January version, and using the 4-minute edit of Dig It instead of the 50-second edit.

Disc 14: AERIAL BALLET. More Mixes of the Rooftop Concert.
The first mix on this disc is the full unedited concert, using stereo sources where possible. The second mix on this disc is the Ron Furmanek stereo mix as edited for the Let It Be film.

I have actually seen this out there as well.
I remember someone at BZ created this excellent set.
I was trying to recall who. perhaps its in the liner notes and I missed it.
I'd suggest getting this to anyone who doesn't have it.

I started thinking about this now that the 50th SDE set has been released.

It reappeared recently on a few other sites e.g. Guitars101 and The Trader's Den + some torrents site.

Just sayin'

Was this on the old BZ originally ?
Just wondering who the author was or if he ended up here

I'm guessing he is not here or he would have claimed the work

Hi, yes it has already been shared here, but it is always good for those who missed it - and I did not :)
