The Beatles - Free as a Bird (New Clean Vocals Mix 2023)

  • The Instrumental is taken from the Anthology release.
    Johns vocals are taken from the original piano demo which I isolated, cleaned up and edited to fit the Anthology Instrumental.
    Johns original demo is almost complete except he never finished the bridge, he had the first part (Whatever happened to, the life that we once knew, da da da da daa..) and he had the rest of the melody. Paul added to it and finished the lyrics for the Anthology release. I thought it would be nice to have John continue what he started so I used AI to help John continue singing the bridge sections with Paul and also George. This took a while as I didnt want to be able to tell where Johns original vocals end and the AI begins.
    But as the title says, this is Johns original vocals from the demo Isolated and cleaned. It is only a few seconds of AI for a part in the bridge.

      @@tankmchavocproductions6907 This new 2023 blue album added many tracks that weren't on the original old Blue album. Adding Glass Onion, Oh Darling, I Want You, I Me Mine? (Yes, I'm a hardcore Beatles fan and love them all, but those were odd choices to slap onto a greatest hits package.) Yes, they could have and should have included Free as a Bird and Real Love on this instead. And AI-improved versions pulling John's vocals out a bit better would have been great.

    You know, I really wanted to hear a cleaned up version of this, but now I kind of prefer the "original." The kind of ghostly lo-fi cassette vocal works as an 'effect,' which I think John might have liked. He was always trying to hide his voice behind fx during his Beatle years.

      @tomcunniff7694 8 місяців тому +33

      100% agree. The brilliance of the original production is that it treated the Lennon vocal as intentional -- "hey that's really different sounding, let's work with that!" -- rather than an error that couldn't be fixed in production. This clean vocal would need a fair bit of pitch correction and volume normalization to work (all possible now), but IMO still wouldn't sound as good as embracing the wobble.

    Somehow…it's fitting that the final three Beatles songs-FREE AS A BIRD, REAL LOVE, and NOW AND THEN-should all be Lennon-written songs augmented by the others because he was the 'original' or founding member of the band-to-be. After John, Paul was added, then George, and finally Ringo. As The Beatles, the other three have at the beginning of their four-way collaboration filled out and finished what John originally started and for this trilogy of songs they've done the same.
    Ever since NOW AND THEN was released I've wished for similar enhancement of the other two Lennon Lead Vocal final songs, and now that I hear what's possible the improvement is really worthwhile and wonderful with just the extra amount of John's 'presence' audible in them. Thanks so much and I hope Giles can one day do as well or perhaps even better.
