Description
The Beatles’ “MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR” has been released many times due to its nature as a TV movie. The fact that the audio has been remixed each time means that there are many different mixes as a result. The latest version is the Blu-ray version released in 2012. If the system boasts a large capacity, remixed audio can make full use of its power. If that’s the case, the new stereo mix created by going back to the session tapes using today’s latest technology is simply wonderful. When the animated movie “YELLOW SUBMARINE” was released on DVD in 1999, a new remixed album was released under the concept of “SONGTRACK”, but in 2012’s “MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR” it was released. It didn’t come true. Therefore, the aim of this release was a song track album of “MMT”. The song track album released online in 2015 by Maxwell Edison Records, a mania label that actually focused on this point, is the basis for this album, and that is what was included on the first disc. The great thing about this title is that, in addition to the main Blu-ray audio, they also tracked down and recorded the original sound sources of non-Beatles songs and performances used in the movie scenes. For example, the cover version of “She Loves You” played during the marathon scene was performed by an organ orchestra called Irvin’s 89 Key Marenghi Fair Organ, and was included in their 1965 “PLAYS LENNON AND McCARTNEY” EP. The sound source that was recorded. Also, the cover of “All My Loving” that was played during the scene where Aunt Jessie and Mr. Brad Bethel were making out on the beach was included in the Arthur Wilkinson Orchestra’s EP called “BEATLE CRACKER SUITE”, also released in 1965. . The great thing about Maxwell Edison Records is that they have compiled movie performances that go back to these items. In addition, the label mixed the original lines from the original 1967 monaural audio for the lines that appear at the beginning of the movie’s title song, so that you can enjoy the original state even though it is in stereo. In the regular album, Paul speaks with authority, but in the original audio of the movie, John utters his own line “Harley Hallie” in a humorous voice. It was a strange item that had not been made into a CD until now, but for the release of this limited press edition, we have reviewed the contents and refined it into a more complete compilation. The previous “She Loves You” was changed to the same pitch height according to the conditions at the time of recording the movie. What is even more noteworthy is that “Zampa Overture” by the International Studio Orchestra, an easy listening group that was also used in the marathon scene, has been reverse-rotated and edited in the same way as the movie, making it more complete as a song track. The content is as follows. Also included in the Maxwell Edison Records version was Traffic’s performance, which saw the light of day in the Blu-ray bonus footage, but was omitted this time as it was virtually unrelated to the Beatles or the movie. Instead, a full version of the orchestral performance is included as a bonus. We’ve also added the orchestral track for “I Am The Walrus” and the original Shakespearean play that appears in the middle of the song. The second disc contains remixes made in recent years of the Beatles songs used in the movie and the single song included on the B side of the album of the same name, so it is a remix version of the album “MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR”. I am. When some songs were added to movie scenes, the intros and endings were slightly missing, but this time they were carefully adjusted using patches from the regular album. All of the 2012 remix versions heard here were made with the assumption that they would be recorded on Blu-ray, and all of them are amazing at their extremely clear finish. From the opening title song (this one starts with Paul’s usual lines), the rhythm guitar played by John’s acoustic guitar, which was previously inaudible, can be heard clearly, which is crisp and fresh. Also, the clarity of each instrument in the instrumental “Flying” is wonderful. However, the ultimate song is “I Am The Walrus”. There is no doubt that it is a song that is worth remixing from the beginning, and when the “ANTHOLOGY” DVD was made, a version that could be heard in stereo until the end was already made, but as expected, Blu-ray, A powerful new stereo mix that easily surpasses that. Although the basic performance of the band is highlighted, the various decorations added are not obscured, giving it a modern finish in the best sense of the word. The overwhelming clarity and reborn finish that can be heard with these should be thoroughly enjoyed with headphones.You will be surprised by the vividness of the intro. A remix of “ABBEY ROAD” was released this year, and “LET IT BE” is set to be released next year. If things go in that order, it will be a while before a remix of “MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR” is realized for the record version. In that respect, this release will reduce the thirst of maniacs. Still, it is a surprise for enthusiasts that you can listen to BGM sound sources other than the Beatles in clear sound quality from the original sound source without going through the video. So to speak, just like the soundtrack of the US version of “A HARD DAY’S NIGHT”, the point is that you can hear the performances used in the movie, other than the Beatles, in their complete state. And then there’s the remix version, which will overwhelm listeners with its outstanding clarity unique to 2012, as well as the second album, which has been reborn with the addition of recent remixes, and you can easily enjoy it. It would be a waste to watch this only on Blu-ray. The best song track album that you want to enjoy at full volume from your speakers. This is no longer the Blue Jay way, it’s the Blu-ray way!
