I have to respond to some of these comments and suggestions.
People are mentioning pitchtone issues with the singing.
Put on the song Yellow Submarine. Now is it me or is the first "town" Ringo sings seriously flat and wavering? Could he have redone it? yes,Did he? no. Some of those background harmonies are little off too. Thankk Gawd the Beatles let total perfection take a backseat sometimes. First lesson to learn from The Beatles.
Also, you mention reverb, however in 1966 when they did this album, I don't think they were drenching there harmonies in reverb. Why should a cover version be diluted down with it?
I like the dry approach on this one. Too much reverb out there.
It's an STD as far as Im concerned.
Studio Transmitted Diseases: Reverb-itis.
Too much reverb. Less reverb sounds more like the beatles.
But I guess thats just personal preference.
I do they they should be lowered in the mix though, they do kind of jump out a little too much, but reverb wont fix that, use the fader instead and turn the track down. George Martin did it that way 9 of ten times. he never ran to a Lexicon unit.
Just my opinion, feel free to have a different one. Nobodys right, nobodys wrong.
One last thing, If you're going to do a Beatles cover, I like the approach you guys took by sticking close to the original.
Changing those bass breaks would ruin the song, IMO.
There's nothing I hate worse is when people take the liberty to rewrite a classic song. If you wanna hear The Sex Pistols do a version of Tommy, go ahead, but I rather hearing somebody doing justice toa cover in the tradition of the song, changing it completely can lead to some pretty scary results.
Anyways, just thought some input on the suggestions here....
keep rockin and rollin
