Doesnt the SFF promo have previously unseen parts like the three looking up to Paul in the tree? Dont remember seeing that before.
And they both look incredible.
Should be noted that there along with all the promotion that will go on with the release there will be a tv special;
The release will be accompanied by a worldwide publicity campaign and include a TV special in the UK.
(source: Examiner)
Hopefully its on the BBC so no adverts. I still have the ‘Magical Mystery Tour ‘ Arena special that was shown on Saturday the 6th October 2012.
No idea if it will be screened at some point later. Was ‘The Beatles On Record’ 2009 TV special shown on the BBC that promoted the remasters even broadcast in the US?

THIS. IS. AWESOME.
I’m just about as excited for the new remixes as much as the promos. How are they going to remix Love Me Do & She Loves You ? No stereo mix is available…
Very exciting times ahead!

I do wonder whose vision of the songs the remixes will represent.

Considering that Giles Martin remixed all but Free As A Bird and Real Love (which have been done by Jeff Lynne), I’m wondering if he’s separated all the instruments as he did for Rock Band and Love. But then they do say these are “produced from the original analogue tapes” so perhaps not.
Bear in mind also that there will be 5.1 surround sound mixes. From four-track tapes that’s hard to achieve satisfactorily, because a lot of instruments and/or voices will be bundled together. But if they’re separated? A totally different story. If they do get manage to separate the guitars and bass in Love Me Do and She Loves You I think we’ll be hearing them in an entirely new way.
And now I’m thinking about how great The Beatles will sound in surround. I’ve got the Love bonus DVD in 5.1 but I’ve never had the means to play it. I might have to invest in a home cinema setup.

I don’t see that that doesn’t mean they might not have used digital trickery to create new multi-tracks where necessary.

“From the original analogue tapes” is an ambiguous statement, isn’t it? They backed up these tapes to digital years ago to avoid further wear and tear. Ahead of the mono LPs reissues they also made a big fuss of it being completely analogue, unlike the stereo CD/LPs and mono CDs. So I guess there are a few scenarios:
- They remixed these directly from the four-track tapes
- They took the analogue tapes and transferred them to digital before remixing (possibly not recent transfers either)
- As 2, but with added separation of instruments and vocals
They’re also not averse to re-creating some of the original sounds. I know there’s a discussion elsewhere on the forum about them using a clean BBC recording of King Lear to create a true stereo mix of I Am The Walrus . I’m sure Giles M mentioned other examples during the Love campaign. The question is how faithful they are to the originals. I’m going to assume they won’t fix playing errors or fly in parts from other takes because that would be a bit sacrilegious.

Here’s an official video about the restoration. I wasn’t overwhelmed by the Penny Lane before/after one, but the differences in some of these are astonishing. “Something ” looks particularly amazing.
I like the way the copyright notice at the end says “Not to be uploaded to youtube.”
