Beatles - Now and Then

[MattK]

Sounds plausible. I think it’s fairly good, except that they tried to put Every Beatle Thing all over it and it’s just wrong for the track. Also the solo is dreadful. Harrison’s solos were the high point of both reunion singles for me back in the 90s, soaring and emotional in ways I don’t usually like but he makes it work so well.
By the way the video is not “puppetised”, Apple (Corps) gave Jackson a pile of unseen outtakes from the “Hello Goodbye” promo video and the shots used are them clowning around on the day.

Just as polarizing, I'm sure, are all these new mixes Giles Martin did in the Red & Blue album releases. I think they're fucking GREAT, personally.

I watched the video a while back, and that was pretty cringey. Over the weekend I had Pandora playing and it came on, and actually on it's own I have to say I personally think it's the best of the 'finished' tracks since the 90s. Like someone else said, it kind of has an emotional effect on me to a degree. If it's the last track they had, then indeed it's the end of an era. Maybe a stretched out era, but an era nonetheless.

How would folks rate it against Free As A Bird & Real Love?

Free as a Bird is the best composition of the three.

I'd love to hear remixed Free and Real with the new AI stem extraction.

(It's going to be OVERcompressed, modern music is OVERcompressed. The Beatles were always at the forefront of modern production so...)

Yeah, I can't judge it in a vacuum, it's special because it's final
