Abbey Road (2009 remix)
Tuesday 9 February 2010
So, here we are again. Somebody told me if you listen very carefully, you can hear Yoko blinking.
The remix isn't as drastic as I thought on first listen, but noticeable nonetheless. The guitars seem to have been de-emphasised the most. One might say (uncharitably) that as only the drummer and the bass player are left, what would you expect.
No harm. I think the other version will remain the canonical version for me, but the difference isn't really enough for me to care.
I just remembered the first time I heard the whole of the album and looking at the label remarking that Octopus' Garden was written by 'someone called Richard Starkey'. Well, what did I know.
