Alex G I don’t feel like the two are mutually exclusive?

No metric. Just feelings!

You sir are a Saint to have put this much effort in!

To be real, it just sounded like they re- recorded the instrumentals and compressed the vocals to match

Do you feel the 2009 version of old brown shoe sounds really bad. The vocals are too quiet and its hard to hear what george is singing in most parts? I really wish they remixed this song cause I feel its georges best song.

Vinyl Rewind Hey great job VG! I think that 🇬🇧 UK press sounds the best! PLAY LOUD!

You should have presented them in a random order, unlabeled to prevent confirmation bias in the viewer. By default the mass opinion is going to be weighted toward the 1969 and 2019 mixes. By presenting them in the order as you did, it probably only confirmed that bias.

Also taking into account that bass-forward mixes weren't common at the time because most turntables couldn't handle or reproduce such a sound. I think Giles really took into account that it is a sacrosanct record, but also offered a mix that allowed drums and bass to be more forefront for the first time without needles jumping. He knows that if people are serious about the album they'll know to seek out a UK 69 pressing, he did a great job.

Great piece of info mate! Thank you!

the bass sounds great but separates itself from the rest of the mix which is a shame. It started to annoy me once i noticed it and couldnt unhear it..

They did a great job.

yes exactly this 💯✔️

I very much agree with you on that!

@@mazerflow3854 I hear more pressing than the 69 one... It's got all the low end you'd want, and isn't bright

The early UK pressings are the Best.

@@thomaslytle5519 sadly, I don’t have any.

UK was very clear (my favorite )and 2019 and original are very good but the others sounded a little tampered from those and less natural.

Transferred to digital

...and remixed. Others come from a 2-track master, they are only remasters. This new one is a mix which comes from original multitrack tapes, that's been then remastered. Drums are the most notable "plus" of the 2019 mix.

@@ferrochrom2191 agree would say bass also as the bass notes now rattle my speakers in my car!!!

Bass boosted and compressed to death

The 1986 CD remasters are sourced from the 2nd generation analog master tapes. The 2009 CD remasters are sourced from the 1986 digital remasters and you can still hear 16 bit reverb from digital 80's plugins. Abbey Road told Giles Martin who helped on mixing they had to use his father's digital remasters because they thought George Martin would be offended. When they asked George, George said he didn't even care. So they admitted they screwed up the 2009 remasters. The 2019 remix is the first time since 1986 we have gone back to the analog tapes only this time they were 1st generation instead of 2nd.

In my opinion, the original U.S. copy consistently sounded the worst. The best I believe was the 1980s U.K. pressing, as it had the best mix of analog punch and digital clarity.

I liked the mo fi one the best

The MFSL is laughingly bass heavy, due to improper half-speed mastering

yeah, cause the 1969 perfectly gives us the 60s feel and the 2019 Mix is just so so good sounding, it's so much clearer. Way better than the poorly mixed 2009 remasters

Giles has carried on the tradition started by his late father Sir George.

The best part of Oh! Darling ‘19 is that they turned the harmonies up so they’re more prominent.

More like a proper modern stereo mix. As proper as it could be with what they had on the original tapes. They did stereo very differently back in the day.

I cant believe u can say that cuz i hear no difference at all

@@gkb4401 You really gotta listen hard for the differences. I speak for the Mobile Fidelity because I listened to a needle drop of it once and the highs were pretty painful to the ears.

Tritnew i mean who even listens to it on vinyl with their ears on the speakers

@@gkb4401 Technically I did since I listened to it all via headphones. You just gotta have a real good ear in general, but I'm pretty sure the Vinyl Geek turned the volume down for most of these 'cause the Mobile Fidelity usually sounds VERY sharp to the ears.

3 and 5 are clearly the best

I've got a bootleg where you hear an unreleased song, Madman being played in a medley with an early version of Mean Mr. Mustard. I hope that makes it to next year's Get Back/ Let it Be remix box set.

I have a lot of qualms with I want you she’s so heavy as well. Wicked Organ was turned down, the last harmony was turned down (I think because of Paul belting it out), the moog wind noises being quieted down, and how it doesn’t end as abruptly as the original. In the original the end cuts off instantly while in the 2019 mix it sounds like somebody turning it off with a knob. You can hear it quiet down a bit before it cuts off. Other than that the modern loud production works so well with the intensity of the song none of the things I said really even matter that much

@@theeoddments960 Yes, the very end of I Want You isn't sharply cut off anymore. It's a really strange decision to have changed such a critical part of the song like this - I wonder what Giles Martin was thinking?

@@pavinder Giles probably didn't "Get" why it was abruptly cut in the first place is my theory.

@@trentnunyabiz6204 It seems so. I've never heard a cut piece of tape fade out!

I would classify all these as nitpicks. If you wanna put the cut back into I Want You, just open up Audacity and cut it near the end and leave a bit of empty space before Here Comes The Sun. A easy fix imo.

In the Parks you’re silly.

Yoko after George's digestive biscuits

I agree.

Same here

2019 is closest to 1969 EQ I have noticed.

Kwenz Landah and you’re an ugly fat diseased phreak. Not true? Well neither was your comment.

@@wellesradio you're gonna insult the guy, make sure your comment is not Like this. Cause it looks stupid when you find clever ways to post a comment.

It all sounds the same to me

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 wear headphones

"I Want You" and "Hey Jude" are unquestionably the lengthiest tracks the Beatles ever recorded.

That's original mix. Learn to distinguish mix and master already.

1987-2019 (non-remixed) stereo Beatles pressings are digital-sourced.

hope it was a good time.

Tony M it was amazing. Our daughter loved it. We packed so much into those few days. The tour guide mentioned it was her birthday, as did the artist playing the live stage in the cavern itself. The whole time was magical.

@@chriggle1 love the BEATLES! that's great. you're a hell of a Dad. I always have associated them w/ CHRISTMAS, and CHRISTMAS w/ them.

@@tonym994 I'm a mum 😀 My mum brought us all up on the Beatles, so our daughter was bound to pick it up. We have a tradition of playing Birthday from the White Album on our birthdays, it's my birthday tomorrow. We did the trip to Liverpool 3 years ago too for my 40th. My husband's family lived there until 1968. I am reliably informed that my husband's cousin used to spend time with John and Cynthia. My sister in law walked to George Harrison's parents house on Macketts Lane and asked for autographs. They were given them, but my sister in law was afraid her mum would tell her off so she gave them to her friend. She never saw the autographs again. Lastly, my daughter will inherit all my mum's first day release Beatles vinyls when she is able to care for them properly. They are safely stored away until that point. My mum died when my daughter was 2 years old. My parents would have been hiring an apartment in Liverpool too had they been here with us for her 18th. They were very much there in spirit.

@@chriggle1 I thought I replied to this post, but if I didn't (may not have hit send) I hope you're having ,or had a happy birthday. highly interesting post. theBEATLES will live forever. I started playing 'birthday' last night. w/ Lennon's trademark ferocious Metal sounding rhythm guitar. or was that George? Mike Pachelli would have the answer. my Dad had a birthday on the 27th ,and my uncle will be 91 the 30th. during the depression they got exactly one gift for CHRISTMAS and their birthdays.

Definitely.

And “scrunchy”

A lot of gain on that bad boy

I saw that at my local record shop and was thinking about picking it up. Probably gonna stay away from it, thanks!

Well your wrong It's just your copys that have it it worn out.

Uk or usa version ?

@@joangonzales5576 It's from UK

I had one from 2019 and I don't like it very much, I'm going to buy a 1969 from UK, does your copy sound great?

@@joangonzales5576 I checked. I had remembered incorrectly. I have the Swedish version in stereo (PCS 7088 [YEX 749]) from 1969 and it's a killer mix. At least to my ears. I just assumed since sweden was so close to UK that we would just import instead of pressing our own.

I suspect it's a bit of a tradeoff, if this is sourced from the original multitrack and they didn't want to add a bunch of compression to muddy it up. Turning up your system to compensate for level might reveal the limitations of that system.
