Given how popular single tracked vocal mixes are, I decided to give all of Rubber Soul this treatment. On a lot of Beatles albums, it wouldn’t be possible to this for every song either due to lack of available sources or due it being trivial (as all the vocals were single-tracked to begin with). However, on Rubber Soul, it was possible to create a single-tracked vocal mix for every song (at least for the lead vocal). There were a few songs on the album that had single-tracked vocals to begin with. On these tracks I have removed other elements such as backing vocals or additional guitar parts. While some of you might already have single-tracked mixes of some of these songs, the mixes on this set are almost all upgrades (in some way) to those that were released previously. In addition, I have also included single-tracked mixes of the We Can Work It Out/Day Tripper single as well as bonus tracks, which are single tracked but with the other vocal performance. Special thanks to Lord Reith, csnyfan, and magoocus.
The download link at the bottom of this post. In that link, I have also included a text file with more detailed descriptions of the tracks, for those who are interested. (Note for some songs the description is just one line, while for others it's a full paragraph.)
I’m aware that I might get criticized for this, but I have kept the files as WAV’s not FLAC’s for convenience, since not all computers, particularly older ones, support FLAC as a native format. (While my current MAC supports FLAC, my older computer did not, and I had to download an additional program to convert the files). If anyone wants to reupload this in FLAC, go right ahead.
I haven't created any artwork for the project.
