The Beatles Revolver


Just read where Giles Martin is using  AI-powered audio separation technology to remix Revolver. From what I read he can take the mono tracks and separate all the instruments and vocals on the 4 track tape the were recorded on and then I guess remix them in 24 track or whatever he wants. Is this good? I love The Beatles and no matter how much better it my sound it not the same. They had what they had in 1966. And George Martin did wonders with 4 tracks. Where does this reissuing of classic albums stop. Is Revolver remixed in multi tracks still Revolver?

The values of corporations in the 60’s were little different than those of today. You only have to look at the greed of Eisenhower’s military-industrial complex during Vietnam. Nothing’s new.

Sorry, Mr. Musturd, but I don’t see "endless exploitation" of The Beatles for money, nor do believe that the surviving Beatles have or would permit it. They seem to still have a hand in how their legacy is handled, and if cutting-edge can continue to add something to their music, I believe they are all in. After all, the fulfillment of their music’s potential happened in the studio.

Scratch that. Never mind the sorry part.

Would you argue that Free As a Bird was motivated by exploitation?

God knows greed is abundant. That doesn’t mean that it’s universal. Life isn’t the black and white of Revolver, it’s the color of Sgt. Pepper’s.

It wasn't Eisenhower's military-industrial complex. Eisenhower warned AGAINST the military-industrial complex...

The Revolver album sounds great as is.......just another money making over dubbed remix.

@richardmathes When people say, as many here are, I among them, that these remasterings are all about money, we’re talking about the motive behind the 4,678th remastered, re-issued, deluxe, super deluxe etc. etc. Beatles album.

This observation is completely removed from any judgement of the Beatles themselves.

" All About The Money "

Is it the fans wanting more or the " capitalists " creating a market ?

Either way what does this have to do with the question about  the new release being different and the quality of it ?   

I'll be answering that question after October 28th when the 2 LP issues is released and I can compare it to a 2009 digital copy and the last all analogue Japanese Box set copy .
