 Who is George Martin to say that "12-Bar Original" and Take 2 of "Helter Skelter" get boring after a while? d

If anyone is in a position to say that, it is George Martin

Considering this is the same guy who said the White Album should've been a single album, I'm not so sure.  Not everyone has ADD these days.

Soundcloud is wise to my hijinks. Here's the new link: http://www.mediafire.com/?p15c.....6ce4jfb5c1

Ok, thanks.

Although I don't like editing songs (See Oh! Darling on Anthology 3) I have to say you've done a brilliant job at it. It transitions seamlessly and the edit point is barely noticeable.

Thanks, it's always nice things like these work out.

Don't you mind uploading the whole song with edited part? It will be good for car so I don't have to lower ...]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2012 00:19:57 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/page-2/#p57925 The songs http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/page-2/#p57925 For some folks, editing seems like a fun way to....how shall I say, discover and enjoy the Beatles music in their own or different way.

Technology has allowed people to do things to audio and or video recordings to suit their own pleasure, and that's all good. That's what living is all about. Happiness.

I consider myself a purist in that, I prefer to listen to the songs the way they were released to the public by the artist. When the Beatles made a new record. It was like a revelation. You will remember where you were and what you were doing ...]]> Tue, 18 Sep 2012 07:53:27 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/page-2/#p57921 The songs http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/page-2/#p57921 Doctor Robert had an extra 39 seconds

I don't really think it's too big of a deal to make little edits, what do you guys think?

I don't see it as a problem if you're doing it for yourself, but I wouldn't do it.

There may be others but i cant think of them off the top of my head. Oh a tiny bit of I Am The Walrus was cut out on some of the mixes but is there on others.

Edit: There was also Flying (originally over 9 mins but most of that being loops) and of course Dig It which never ended.

I should've specified I was referring specifically to finished songs with a piece edited right out, rather than things sewn together from different takes.

Ok i listened to it eventually and whilst i stand by it being up to fans to do as they wish i dont like that at all. Why anyone would cut out such a crucial part of a piece of work is beyond me. I feel like i should be banging my head against the wall. Im puzzled by such an action, bordering on speechless.

And the edit is clear is day, how anyone cant hear where it jumps is just as strange.

 

Im going to have to listen to the full song.

I didn't mean that I didn't notice that ...]]> Mon, 17 Sep 2012 22:24:21 +0100 http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/#p57911 The songs http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/the-songs/editing-songs-ok-or-not-ok/#p57911 Obvious one- Strawberry Fields Forever is two completely different takes mixed together.

Basically there are tons.
