IT WON'T BE (TRES) LONG
Posted: Thu Jun 03, 2021 11:35 am
Ever wondered what it's like to be a Beatle microphone?
Well, today you may just find out!
When The Beatles played at Treslong in Holland in 1964, they mimed for the cameras instead of performing because they didn't have Ringo there. As was customary for them, they actually sang to the records because this produces a far more convincing result. But this time Paul's microphone was turned up as he sang along, so we got unique double tracked vocals (or triple tracked in some cases).
Okay, okay, I hear you say. "I know this. Put a sock in it LR." But wait! Through the magic of dieting I have isolated Paul's vocal microphone from the rest of the gubbins. If you want you can just listen to the right channel, but on the left I've put the vocal he was supposedly miming to just to have it make more sense. So you get a cool voice-in-each-ear effect. And best of all, you get the close harmony in the final verse split left/right. It's All My Loving, but not as you know it....
