Help! - The Beatles (Highlighted Mono Vocals)

- these vocals are from the mono mix of Help! and are quite different than the stereo version.
Here are some key differences:
-The mono version has no tambourine, and on the first verse, John sings "and now these days...".
-The stereo version has a tambourine, and John sings "but now these days..."
-The phrasing of "changed my mind" differs between the mono and stereo versions as well.

If you find an ORIGINAL print of the movie (not the redone versions), this is the version (with the backing up) that they used at the beginning and end. It's not QUITE the same as the single mix, though I think it's the same performance- just a different mix. As a kid in the 70s, I was such a Beatle dork that I recorded the entire move on audio cassette when it ran one night. Must've been about 11. And where they very first sing the "Help!" harmonies (intro) is the dead give away. The higher harmony was a bit louder on that mix. There's a bit more reverb on it too than the single.
However, now when I hear "Help!" my mind goes to the hilarious Get Back version with Paul laughing through it.
It's interesting that the released mono mix was born from the edited film version of the song rather than the originally recorded version the stereo version was made from. They even had a mono version prepared already, but redid it with the edited film version. I guess since Help! was somewhat of a soundtrack album it made sense to use that version, but it's still pretty strange.
Thanks for this version of the song.
I’m well familiar with the 45 mix, where the vocals change at “when I was younger”, but never heard the first bit with the different vocals before. Cool
hopefully if a Help! box set comes, a clean mono copy with these rerecorded vocals comes out
I've always wondered if the multis exist for this, I believe they were recorded on a three-track machine, so the vocal overdubs would exist on two separate tracks. Maybe we'll get it on a Help! deluxe.
Yes, hopefully
From HArd Day's Night to some of the White album it was a four track.
@@capitolemiproducer I'm talking about the mono vocal specifically. They were re-recorded at CTS studios, which only had three-track.
I think George Martin only got the mono mixdown back, so who knows if it still exists...
Another good one
Skvělé ❤
With A.I technology I was able to make a stereo version with this track, but it was far from easy. Firstly two different speeds. But it seems that the vocal track used some type of time compression as many times the vocals come in earlier than the conventional mixes. I had to add pauses then omit blank sections for the backing track and this vocal track to sync up. Took about 2 hours. ua-cam.com/video/kZS8_PzbMkQ/v-deo.html
Interestingly I always thought the vocals on this version were tighter. Just unfortunate the recording isnt of the same quality as the studio version!
How do you get single-tracked vocals?
I would like to ask when did all this material of multitracks or isolated tracks begin to appear? Excuse my ignorance but I am not familiar with sound engineering much so I just wonder how all this work
Isolated tracks have been on UA-cam for quite some time, but recently UA-cam hasn’t been blocking songs that have been remixed in the 2023 box sets.
I’ve never heard those intro vocals before!! Where did this come from?!
The ladies call me MISTER MAN CANDY - so i have that going for me.
The church could do a cover
"If you don't go you're going to... HELL!!" lol
