I think that's exactly what I ended up doing in my note above, Mark.]]> Sat, 27 Aug 2016 11:32:59 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=46126&title=this-song-george-harrison#46126 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=46124&title=this-song-george-harrison#46124 Author: Paul Haney

One more solo Beatles request...looking for the (3:53) version of "This Song" (very under-rated song, IMO).]]> Fri, 26 Aug 2016 19:37:10 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=46117&title=this-song-george-harrison#46117 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7379&title=this-song-george-harrison#7379 Author: aaronk

I haven't tried this one, but I'd be willing to give it a try if you want to forward the audio.]]> Sat, 30 Sep 2006 13:22:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7379&title=this-song-george-harrison#7379 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7378&title=this-song-george-harrison#7378 Author: Todd Ireland

Yep, that's the very issue I'm having, Gordon and Doug. I don't know if the first note in the stanza can be duplicated and inserted in place of the extra piano note because I believe this would wind up clipping the first saxophone note. If anyone can make it work, please let me know.

This reminds me of a case I had with Donna Allen's "Serious" where I could edit the LP version to match the 45 except for the fact that the word "talk" in one spot had a different voice inflection on the 45 than on the LP!

Well, at least I feel better that someone with a lot better editing skills than mine was having an issue in the same spot.

If I lose anyone with this, don't feel bad--I may get lost myself. I wonder if we could take the first note in that stanza, duplicate it (so that it repeats once), then insert the edit with the three saxophone notes in a row (followed by the bass line), and that should segue right into the "this song could well be. . ." line.

Did that make any sense?]]> Sat, 30 Sep 2006 12:03:19 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7377&title=this-song-george-harrison#7377 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7375&title=this-song-george-harrison#7375 Author: EdisonLite

When I listened to Doug's 45 edit, the only slight difference I noticed was on the second drum/cymbal/saxophone hit -- there was an extra note in there. This sounds very much like what you're talking about, but you called it an extra piano chord under the second drum/cymbal hit/sax.

If you and Doug both have the same exact spot that isn't matching up, it's probable that you can't edit the LP version to get the exact 45.]]> Sat, 30 Sep 2006 08:48:51 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7375&title=this-song-george-harrison#7375 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7372&title=this-song-george-harrison#7372 Author: Todd Ireland

My homemade 45 version has an edit point at the 3:16 mark immediately before the series of drum hits. Here, I inserted a section I copied and pasted from earlier in the song at the 2:30-2:32 points. This eliminates the most of the running piano scale you speak of, Gordon, but mine still has one extra piano chord that can be heard under the second drum/cymbal hit and saxophone that isn't on the vinyl 45. I've spent a lot of time trying to get it right and I can't quite seem to nail it. I believe I'm very close though.

Has anyone else tried this 45 edit? Aaron? Brian?]]> Sat, 30 Sep 2006 08:12:42 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7372&title=this-song-george-harrison#7372 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7369&title=this-song-george-harrison#7369 Author: EdisonLite

Todd,

Doug and I have been discussing this, and it turns out that my edit wasn't quite right. Doug sent me his edit, which is closer, but we even determined that there might be an extra note in a chord in Doug's edit, so it's not quite right either. Doug has been keeping good track (the minute and second) where an edit should start on this one, so I'll let him answer your question. I did this edit a few years ago and don't remember exactly what I did, and it turns out it was slightly wrong. It still comes out to be the same length, but there's this one little measure where mine has 3 piano flourishes over the guitars and drums, when the 45 edit doesn't have that.]]> Fri, 29 Sep 2006 22:42:05 +0000 https://top40musiconcd.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1391&PID=7369&title=this-song-george-harrison#7369
