Always great to discover a mother with excellent taste!

Paul, smooth and silky; John, nasal and raw; George, a mixture of both. The combination of all three - and on paper it should make no sense - the texture is the purest of harmonies! Only The Everly Brothers and Simon & Garfunkel compare with the two part harmonies. George is underrated for his input

I am the EggPod @eggpod.bsky.social · 4d

It’s the polar opposite of the exhausted three harmonising vocals on Because. Exuberant, thrilling and Prellies-fuelled - especially on the final, excited “yeah!” outburst

I am the EggPod @eggpod.bsky.social · 4d

As always George had the most difficult harmony. John and Paul seemed to pounce on the 1 and 3 - leaving George to find the missing in between notes!

Sometimes words are irrelevant. Just close your eyes and listen!

Everyone’s heard the incredible (triple-tracked) three part harmonies on Because from 1969.

But four years prior to Abbey Road John, Paul and George recorded this far more subtle, emotional and raw vocal performance. Just so beautiful

A rough listen, but there’s so much gold dust in there.

As ever, Beatles fans across the world are doing the best work in remixing/restoring Beatles audio. Thanks to these diligent souls, the ropey Star-Club recordings are getting better all the time.

If PJ’s tech is the best out there, then surely it’s only a matter of time?

If this happens a lot (which I think it will), the short term benefit will be that the box set will come down in price in a few months. The long term benefit will be that the new set of fans who watch Anthology on Disney+ will hopefully have a more affordable box. Not what Apple wanted, but hey!

I suspect there’ll be an influx of people doing this. What a shame. This whole project could’ve been done so much better.

And the standalone was about £2!

Glad they’ve seen sense, but I hope not too many people have already paid for the boxset in order to get Anthology 4.
