  4. I'm loving this remix, thank you so much for it Prof. My two favourite things so far are the piano you really brought up in No Reply, and how the claps weave about the stereo image on Words Of Love. Amazing technology! I'm ever grateful for this magic you do.

    Of course you don't take requests, but have you considered doing the other 5 songs from Led Zeppelin II to complete a remix of the record? Or do you think the quality of the 2 different types of remixes would be too different to make it cohesive, or something else?

  11. Prof, how did you get Eight Days a Week with a full-volume beginning like that?

    1. Just some manual tweaking with enveloppe and gain in audition.

    2. I nearly jumped out of my skin when I heard that beginning. Haha. Like you said, the purists can stay away. Actually, I think many purists would enjoy your work regardless, because it sounds so good.

  15. Umm, so true, not for the purist. I actually like the mono version best but, with that said, this sounds really well.

    1. For me, and many others, this was the early Beatles album that sounded better in stereo than mono. The mono was a bit over-compressed and lifeless, but the stereo really shone, and wasn't too lopsided like some of the other early stereo mixes. That said, I think I may prefer The Prof's version.

  16. Wow - what a joy - love the backbeat emphasis!

  17. Didn't want to check it first but when I saw the comments that you've mixed Eight Days a Week intro to full volume, I'm sell
    Thanks for the great remix!

  18. Prof,
    Once again your fine hand has unearthed fresh sounds from an album I thought I knew inside and out.. I just can't stop listening to your entire Beatles remix / remaster series....thank you is just not adequate for the joy your bringing me.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Thanks for continuing your Beatle remixes. IMO some their finest early original songs on this LP.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Thank you very, very much.

    ReplyDelete
  21. This sounds fantastic! Easily the best stereo mix I've heard. People like to give this album crap, but I've always thought it is underrated. I agree with you Prof; this one has some original gems. Plus, "Rock and Roll Music" and "Kansas City" rank as some of their best covers in my opinion.

    The anticipation for a remixed Rubber Soul is building...

  22. As always, an awesome job. Thanks, Professor.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Great. EDAW loud introduction is cool.
    Thank you very much, prof. :-)

  24. I love what you've done with your Beatles remixes and hope to see more. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  25. Thanks Prof. You did a fantastic work. I can't wait to your "Rubber Soul" in stereo, my first and beloved LP.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Like many others I had pre-ordered. It was an overcast day, and after school I went to the shops to pick it up. I had an afterschool job and this was my first Beatle LP bought with my own money. I was 13. Thanks for bringing a great memory back.

  27. This is so amazing!! Thank you very much!!

  28. Prof,. Looks like your influence is finally forcing the "Beatle Continuium " to finally use what Brian Kehew said that Abbey Road Studio developed a software program they call MAL Just like Dr Ebbetts; you have, though your abilities to separate elements and come up with proper stereo Beatles remixes, have forced their hand. Guarantee unlike your beautiful work, Giles Martin will wind up remixing to appease the " beats headphone" generation with too much compression as well as excessive volume. Here's a link to The Daily Beatle...http://webgrafikk.com/blog/news/mal-software-saved-revolver-mix/

    1. I listened to the samples of the Revolver mixes and the full version of Taxman made available today. Although it's good, I believe the Prof's stereo mixes of the Beatles are superior. The Prof mixes are better in bass drum alignment, stereo separation and over balance.

      Delete
    2. The "Taxman" extraction remix is horrible, but the Hoffman Forum is jerking itself into a frenzy over how fantastic beyond reproach it supposedly is. It's both funny and sad. I know lots of folks who agree, but nobody has the balls to call them out on it, should they be crucified for being party pooper meanies.

  29. 2 Programs (Foobar & Trader's Little helper) stated that all 17 files are corrupted. Could you please reup?

    1. Have you considered that the problem might be with you? Download incomplete, for example?

      Delete
    2. It was a password issue. 7zip will extract the files with a bad password, & then make them unplayable.
