I dislike the low frequencies panned to the centre which blur the bass guitar when it is on one side, and I really don't like the hard left/right panning of the ADT vocals. But I would never have called it "trash", or any other Beatles mix for that matter. But now that a new version is on the way there's been a certain amount of Revolver bashing going on as people try to justify why a new mix is needed. I guess that's to be expected. But it has gotten a bit out of hand in some quarters.

But the new remix will create new grievances, like the weird tiled-living-room reverb added to what was previously a very "dry" album and the more adventurous demixing where the drums have been presented in stereo (that off-centre rack tom on Tommorow Never Knows is very distracting IMO). And buried vocals or overly loud instruments in some places. So by the time everyone has listened to the whole new album, the thread on Steve Hoffman will have turned into a regular bar fight. The new remixes have polarised fans in a way we have never ever seen before - it's like the flipping Democrats and Republicans now.

How was it tweaked for Anthology 2?
