Description
Like “PLEASE PLEASE ME STEREO MIX (REVISED EDITION)”, this is also the center mix of Lord Reith’s album “WITH THE BEATLES”, and this is also his third try. The basic concept is similar to that, with the rhythm section placed in the center and the balance reworked. However, on songs such as “All I’ve Got To Do,” the drums are placed on the left as in the previous album, but the bass is placed more in the center, giving it more contour and presence. If you think about it, the finish of songs such as “All My Loving” and “Till There Was You” is completely different from the previous version, and this is a completely different mix that can be enjoyed, and the previous version has not faded. Therefore, if you have “WITH THE BEATLES 2019 SPECTRAL STEREO REMIX” or “THE FIRST FOUR ALBUMS IN SPECTRAL STEREO REMIX”, you may enjoy listening to and comparing them. Last time, the hi-hat intro version of “All My Loving” was included in the album itself, but this time it seems like he is particular about recording it separately, with the regular version on the album and the bonus version. In addition, it is refreshing that John’s singing voice in “Not A Second Time” is brought to the forefront as vividly as the separation has improved. In any case, the fact that there are many songs with more noticeable differences from past mixes than “PLEASE PLEASE ME STEREO MIX (REVISED EDITION)” is probably a result of Lord Reith’s commitment to the album. This commitment is clear from the fact that he tried several different mixes on “Money (That’s What I Want)” this time. Among them, the 25th song was recorded, which takes advantage of the unique intro of the mono version, while still being finished in stereo. This is a mix that will make enthusiasts grin. On the other hand, unlike that of “WITH THE BEATLES”, the session tapes still exist, and it is possible to reconstruct a more detailed stereo mix of “From Me To You” and other songs that have a very clear and elegant finish. Just like “PLEASE PLEASE ME STEREO MIX (REVISED EDITION),” its wonderful workmanship should be enjoyed with headphones. This also gives the illusion that it was recorded with 4 tracks. His big hit song “I Want To Hold Your Hand” is based on the center mix version of the same song released only in Australia (a true precursor to Lord Reith!), but he still places the bass in the center, which is unique to him. The version with added treatment is also a mix that will make enthusiasts groan. Additionally, this release also includes the session footage for the same song and the B-side “This Boy.” This is adopted from “YOU KNOW YOU SHOULD BE GLADDER”, where Lord Reith tried again to remix the session sound source of “WITH THE BEATLES”. So what he did was to create a more raw sound. And new mixes such as “Thank You Girl”, which was recorded on the same day as “From Me To You” mentioned earlier, were originally created by Lord Reith as “ABRACADABRA”, which was the basis of “PLEASE PLEASE ME STEREO MIX (REVISED EDITION)”. This part was included in “VOL.1 REDUX”, but by summarizing it here, the content is chronologically accurate. Therefore, you can listen not only to the album itself, but also to the condensed sessions, making this a convenient release. A wonderful stereo remix that surprised even the official, and Lord Reith’s skills are clearly demonstrated here as well! THE BEATLES – WITH THE BEATLES STEREO REMIX (REVISED EDITION) (71:12) 01.
