al mcguire Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 In this video we see Sir George Martin, Giles Martin (his son), and Dhani Harrison listening to the mix of "Here Comes The Sun". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudsound Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I was lucky enough to have recorded that clip about four years ago which is part of a longer sequence that was not used in the George Harrison documentary, Living In The Material World. We shot a long interview with George Martin at Abbey Road Studios and after that we recorded the sequence with George Harrisons' son Dhani, George Martin and his son Giles picking through the original eight track recordings from the Abbey Road album. A fascinating day but unfortunately since landing on YouTube it sounds a bit mangled and meddled with compared to my original tracks and a shame it was dropped from the final film.

old school Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 You're a lucky man DH. Wish I were there. BTW, I never judge sound from a youtube clip. I'm sure it was a fine recording like the others in the documentary. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Joachim Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Nice! Far and above my favorite Beatles song. It may just be my familiarity talking but, I think the song works better without the guitar solo. Great to hear it though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundmanjohn Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 For all you Harrison fans, if you haven't already got it, the DVD of the memorial concert at The Albert Hall in London is well worth getting hold of. Even McCartney is able to tone down his contribution to become part of an extraordinary band. Joe Brown's final rendition of 'I'll See You In My Dreams' is beautifully done and exceptionally moving. The sound is pretty good, too! Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElanorR Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 A big smile here too. Thank you for posting this. And to echo CrewC, Dudley you are a lucky man. I would say George Martin's recordings of the Beatles are why I got into sound in the first place. When I was 14 (and living in Oklahoma...) I wrote a letter to EMI studios asking how I could get a job recording for them. Guess what: They wrote back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess what: They wrote back! Oddly enough I did the same thing when I was about 17, (1976), and they replied to me as well, but at least my postage was a bit cheaper than yours.
