  RAM in QUADRASONICS - Paul McCartney - Hear It Differently!

  Aug 22, 202643 min

  PAUL McCARTNEY's 1971 album, RAM , presented in QUADRASONICS , which is a system that uses four independent directional sources of sound . You don't need any special system to listen to it; it's simply a different sounding mix, a bit more separation by using the four "directions" of sound. (It's pretty much the same as Quadrophonic.) It's a really great sound; one that doesn't knock you over the head, but a sound that you can tell is different, yet familiar. Please enjoy!

  THE ALTERNATE CONCERT FOR BANGLA DESH - George Harrison

  Aug 10, 20261h 33m

  August 1, 1971 ~ George Harrison & Friends (including Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Billy Preston, Leon Russell, Badfinger, & others) gave two charity concerts (afternoon & evening) for Bangladesh Relief, at Madison Square Garden in NYC. The matinee began at 2:30 PM, and the evening concert started at 8:00 PM. Most of the songs from the commercially-released triple-album set came from the evening show, while a few were used for the album from the afternoon show. So this set list is the OPPOSITE of the songs used for the commercial release. **PLEASE NOTE: This recording came from an audience member's recording, so the sound is definitely not good. It's listenable, but not up to "commercial" standards. ***ALSO PLEASE NOTE: The source of this recording did not record the Ravi Shankar set, which opened the concert. This recording begins with George and band taking the stage after Ravi's set. I feel, from an historical viewpoint, it's quite cool. Please enjoy! WAH-WAH - George. Audio is from the afternoon show up until the 3:20 mark, at which time, the audio from the evening show is used to finish the song (the opposite of the commercial release) SOMETHING - George. The afternoon version. This was switched to the next-to-last song in the evening performance. AWAITING ON YOU ALL - George. Afternoon version. This song wasn't played at all during the evening show. THAT'S THE WAY GOD PLANNED IT - Billy Preston. Afternoon performance IT DON'T COME EASY - Ringo Starr. Afternoon performance BEWARE OF DARKNESS - George. Afternoon BAND INTRODUCTIONS - From the evening performance. George had forgotten to intro the band earlier in the evening, so these introductions are right before the second-to-last song in the show. I moved the audio up to this point in order to get a good idea of who's in the band. JUMPING JACK FLASH / YOUNGBLOOD - Leon Russell. Afternoon performance HERE COMES THE SUN - George with Badfinger on acoustic accompaniment. Evening performance A HARD RAIN'S A-GONNA FALL - Bob Dylan. Afternoon performance IT TAKES A LOT TO LAUGH, IT TAKES A TRAIN TO CRY - Bob Dylan. Afternoon LOVE MINUS ZERO / NO LIMIT - Bob Dylan. Afternoon. This song was replaced in the evening show by "Mr. Tambourine Man" (which Bob didn't sing in the afternoon.) JUST LIKE A WOMAN - Bob Dylan (joined by George & Leon on vocals). Afternoon HEAR ME LORD - George. Afternoon (George didn't perform this in the evening show.) (It's at this point in the evening show that George introduced the band, but we heard it earlier.) George performs MY SWEET LORD. Afternoon show BANGLA DESH - George. Afternoon Thanks for listening!

  GET YER YA-YA'S OUT! Rolling Stones RAW DEMO ORIGINAL SOUNDBOARD RECORDING

  Jul 16, 20261h 26m

  Arguably the greatest rock 'n' roll concert album is The Rolling Stones' GET YER YA-YAs OUT! recording from 1969's Madison Squrae Garden shows. Post-concert overdubbing was done, from what I've heard, to about half the songs, mostly Mock & Keith's vocals and Keith's gutar work (but some of you may have more info). This is the original soundboard recording of engineer Glyn Johns's Raw Demo (aka "no overdubbing"), from both shows at Madison Square Garden in NYC, November 27 & 28, 1969, and at the Baltimore Civic Center on November 26, 1969. Enjoy! "GET YER YA-YA'S OUT!"
