Hello,
I was checking out the mixing in some Beatles recordings the other day ("Rubber Soul", "Revolver" and some more stuff from that period), and noticed that they tend to have the lead vocals almost entirely on the right and the rhythm guitars on the left. The backing vocals typically go with the leads, except for the "ooohs" and "aaahs" which go on the other side. I am totally new to the whole thing, so I was wondering if this is typical in mixing, or if it was of that decade or if it's just what the Beatles & their producers liked!
Cheers & thanks!
