These are great--from an engineering standpoint, it's amazing how much mic bleed you get--both guitars on This Boy, the rhythm on The Balland of John and Yoko....

Good point, Joseph. I guess a little bleed-over isn't that bad after all!

These are not mystery tracks. They're isolations from the 5.1 surround sound channels of the "Anthology" DVD :-).

I find it interesting that listening to a lot of these tracks makes me realise how the Beatles probably would have never made it past round 1 of American Idol...

Just goes to show that Great vocals can still lead to shee-ite music, and pretty good vocals can lead to a masterpiece of a career.

"Idols" can only do 1 thing well...sing

The Beatles sang well, played instruments, composed surperb music...to the
point of changing the music scene.
Twenty years from now, people will still be talking about the Beatles, and
it will be "Kelly Clarkson" who ?

The topic we are now veering into has depressed me for decades. I will leave the Beatles and their special magic out of it because they were too good, and they just confuse the issue. While American Idol searches for a catchy personality with perfectly appealing pipes (not to me, not to me), thousands of exceptional musicians, songwriters, bands, performers die in their own hometowns for lack of recognition. The music industry is not looking for the best, they are looking for the most. For last year's hit. For Avril Levigne. For another innocuous cash cow.

America doesn't want the best. It wants what it heard already.
Here is where I hide my music:

You are so right Mark. Sadly.
