Beatles/Sweden Radio & TV Show Live Stereo Remix

The Beatles’ performances on radio and television during their 1963 Swedish tour are among the most prestigious performances in their live history, and many people, even non-maniacs, have probably heard of them. This has led to countless items, and there is no doubt that both are classics. These were recorded in 1963, so of course they are monaural, but this year there was a maniac who took on the challenge of converting these classics into stereo. That is the person who calls himself sologui. The mere act of converting standard sound sources into stereo is enough to attract the attention of enthusiasts around the world, but Sologui has converted both songs into stereo based on the best versions that are widely available on the internet. First of all, it is a radio broadcast on October 24th, but this is an old famous sound source where you can listen to rare repertoire such as “Money” and “You Really Got A Hold On Me” with the best sound quality and performance. Moreover, he is also known for “I Saw Her Standing,” which is considered one of the best takes among the many live performances. However, this time, an amazing stereo feeling is created from the moment the song starts violently from the host’s announcement. A decade ago, you might have been fooled into thinking, “I’ve discovered a phantom stereo tape!” However, it seems that something went wrong when converting the sound to stereo, and it’s a shame that a sharp, hard sound sometimes comes in on the right channel. That hard sound that was used in CD equalization a long time ago. Therefore, it is better to listen to the sound through speakers rather than through headphones, without worrying about the hardness. On the other hand, the TV performance “DROP IN” is so famous that it was even used in the movie “EIGHT DAYS A WEEK”. The clarity of the video recording, even though it was in black and white, was also appealing. Here, a little echo was added to create a live feeling, but the result is not bad. Since it is TV audio, the separation is not as pronounced as with radio sound sources, so I think the decision to add echo to compensate for this was the correct decision. Fortunately, the harsh, harsh sound that was mixed in when converting radio sound sources to stereo can hardly be heard here, and even if you are not an enthusiast, you have probably seen the famous live sound source of 1963 in stereo. It should look fresh. Regarding this sound source, the best sound of the original monaural version is included in the masterpiece “LIVE UPGRADES” released last year, so it would be fun to listen and compare it with that. In “Long Tall Sally,” which is played when the host asks for “one more song,” John and George’s guitars can be heard separated, and even the ending “DROP IN” theme has a stereo feel. interesting!
