It's definitely a better version.

Me too.

I just bought a cool Beatles shirt. it's black wth a picture of them from The White Album period, with The Beatles written in white and Beatles written all over it in blue. It's pretty cool.

Hello everybody, I'm unsure if anyone has posted this yet but...

At 2:54 in Hey Jude if you listen very closely you can hear John say O ****ing Hell in the background, this is because that he missed his vocal part and everyone else hit it.

I just thought that was a nice tidbit of info...

robo2448 06-17-2005 06:54 PM

It's been posted but it was a while ago. John's great.

Actually, I thought it was because he missed a chord.

I think it's better. I love the ending to thsi version, like a fade away with echoes while John sings 'Ja Guru Deva.'

Awesome.

bcf717 06-17-2005 08:14 PM

Actually, I thought it was because Phil Spector happened to walk into the studio at that moment.....

slowhand 06-17-2005 10:03 PM

Does anyone here has the picture of George Harrison playing a Fender Jazz Bass during the [b]Abbey Road[/b] sessions? I've been searching for that picture and can't find it anywhere.

Are you serious?

Seafroggys 06-17-2005 11:01 PM

Heh, and Spector later produced Plastic Ono Band and imagine for John :D

[QUOTE=BassMasterMike88]Do you have a 4-track and a program like audacity on your comp?[/QUOTE]

No, I don't, just a crappy mic and the windows "sound recorder"

Maybe I could download something. If I have to buy it there is no way, the nearest Staples is 45 minutes from here :upset:

It's in the Anthology Book, I could scan it for you later today.

robo2448 06-18-2005 10:18 AM

[QUOTE=Seafroggys]Heh, and Spector later produced Plastic Ono Band and imagine for John :D[/QUOTE]

And those are both incredible. Plastic Ono Band is one of the greatest cds of all time IMO. And Imagine is awesome too, although it is not as consistently strong as Plastic Ono Band.

Walrus Gumboot 06-18-2005 10:31 AM

I think Spector produced "All Things Must Pass" too

Why/when did they ditch George Martin?

robo2448 06-18-2005 10:42 AM

I'd have to check the Anthology for when/why they ditched him, but I know they called him up to produce Abbey Road.

bcf717 06-18-2005 11:01 AM

Malcolm..... No, not serious....just me warped sense of humour......

bcf717 06-18-2005 11:26 AM

Martin was never really ditched in the true sense. When they created Apple, after the death of Brian Epstein, Alan Klein was brought in to run Apple. He looked good in the beginning on paper, but proved to be the wrong choice for managing. I think he brought Spector on board.

Hopefully it hasn't been posted before.

Jacaranda 06-18-2005 11:43 AM

It was posted on last page but boy that is amazing I love the guitar in it and that guy playing it was da[I]m[/I]n good.

Endless Obsession 06-18-2005 11:58 AM

Dam that guy is incredible at the ukelele. He did that on only four strings :eek:

slowhand 06-18-2005 01:52 PM

What happened to George Martin was this. The Beatles started the whole [b]Get Back[/b] thing (later renamed [b]Let it Be[/b]). The plan was that it would be a live album, so even though Martin was the supervising producer, John told him that 'none of your production rubbish' was needed.

Anyways, after it all was finished, the Beatles and George Martin all turned their complete attention to a new album, which would become [b]Abbey Road[/b]. The Beatles then asked Glyn Johns to compile an album for the film, but the album was then rejected after being given several release dates (this is the one called [b]Get Back[/b]).

Then came in Phil Spector, took the recordings, added [i]Accross the Universe[/i] and [i]I Me Mine[/i] to the album, because the Beatles can be seen playing this songs during the sessions. And that's how it all happened.

And Woodstock, it would be great if you could. I have that pic in two books, but none of them are good enough for a scan, or at least not for what I wanted it for. =D

blue3 06-18-2005 07:33 PM

I Wanna Hold Your Hand movie is on Much More Music right now.

eghed 06-19-2005 12:23 PM

George Martin was still around during Let it Be he can be seen in the movie, and he plays the shaker on Dig It.

robo2448 06-20-2005 06:57 PM

I think the White Album is one of my top 3 albums of all-time.

/bump

Jacaranda 06-20-2005 07:04 PM

I hate to be a negative Nancy but I was never really impressed with the White Album. I can't even say why, just something I mean its mostly Disc 1 I dislike with 4-5 exeptions. I've always been more of a Rubber Soul guy.

robo2448 06-20-2005 07:06 PM

I like all Beatles. Rubber Soul was the first album by them I owned. Sentimental value + good music makes it one of my favorites too. The White Album seems to be hit or miss to a lot of people. It has some weak spots, but it also has a ton of incredible songs.

edit- 666 :evil: Needs to listen to death and doom metal now lol.

magicbus 06-20-2005 08:09 PM

My favorite Beatles albums, in this order, are Abbey Road, Sgt. Pepper's, MMT, White Album, and Revolver.

These are the only one's I have.

robo2448 06-20-2005 08:15 PM

Mine would be:

White Album
Rubber Soul
Abbey Road
Revolver
MMT
Sgt. Pepper's
Let it Be...Naked
Let it Be
Help
1
With the Beatles

I love them all though.
