Product Description
“AROUND THE BEATLES” which is the title of this work was recorded as a special number of TV program READY STEADY GO !. Although it was the same program that had been appearing several times until then, it was all miming, it was only a few songs appearance, whereas this special number is a neat live performance even though it is a preliminary recording , And unreleased songs (“SHOUT”) and unusual medley are playing and distinguish it from other recordings. Recording was performed on April 19, 1964 London with audiences at Wembley Park Studios, in the UK in May 6, 1964 and in the United States on November 15. In this broadcasting, not only the Beatles, but also the performances of other artists are on air, and furthermore the Beatles members make a science fictional science mock Shakespeare ‘A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream’ and just like idle treats from a modern perspective It has become funny content. This work contains this special number “Around The Beatles”.
【NO OVERDUB VERSION】
From the description of the sound source first. Maiming (mouthpak) at the time of the television program at the time is mainstream, and even when it is a performance scene, there are many cases that sounds are sent a record. For live performance you have to set up a microphone, to prevent obstructions from appearing in front of the picture in a pictorial way, and to avoid the accident that is unique to live reasons that it is less risky for miming Will. However, although AROUND THE BEATLES is also a miming, the point that the sound is not a record is a special note different from the others. Speech that was used was newly recorded for broadcasting in advance, and although it is not a live performance it is a proper live performance. In other words, it means that you played in real time to match the sound you played live in advance. “NO OVERDUB VERSION” is the live version of the person who recorded it in advance. Therefore, no cheers like those seen in the picture are included, it is a rare one of purely playing and singing although it is a live performance.
【ALTERNATE SOURCE】
Special number AROUND THE BEATLES has been released in various forms even if it is fragmented, from the richness of the sound quality and the rarity of the contents. There are so many kinds that there are rebroadcasts in recent years and partially remastered. Here another version is included. “Boys” was recorded with an apple vocal along with “I Wanna Be Your Man”, but the latter was selected in a balanced manner with one apple, and as a result it was a live take that entered the store .
【MARRAY THE K INTERVIEW】
Murray the K, a deeply friendly Murray the K who pushed the Beatles into the United States, visited rehearsals of Around the Beats and is interviewing the Beatles. Of course, the main here is a rehearsal sound source that can be listened to by the back instead of Murray, the K’s talking. It is interesting that he is playing “You Can not Do That” which was not played in the production, as it is being rehearsed, that he would have brought the instrument during the interview. Perhaps it was listed as a candidate for the set list of the day.
【SOUNDTRACK with OVERDUB】
This is the sound source played at the venue on the day to match the live recorded in advance. Naturally cheers are entering all the time and it is a live-like finish. Even more interesting is not only the live take that was recorded in advance, but also the microphone in the production is lightly turned on, and the real time vocals singing together are also heard thinly. This is especially noticeable in “Can not Buy Me Love”, and Paul’s vocals are double tracks.
【16mm FILM COMPLETE VERSION】
Here is the description of the DVD. Initially, it contains a version of 16 mm film with complete recording and the best image quality. From opening to ending, as I wrote at the beginning, this special number has performers other than the Beatles, including them all. Because it is a monochrome image, it is a video work that symbolizes the early Beatles. Wearing a suit, the member shuffs with a mushroom · cut disturbed. . . Here is the Beatles as perceived by the general public. Although a skit is being demonstrated, it falls into a strange illusion that Julie is doing the control of Dorif, but you can feel the peculiar air of this age where the escape from the idol to the artist is not done perfectly. Even so, I think members are often, especially John received such appearances. It is exactly “I sold my soul to become famous.”
【COLOR VERSION】
Over 120 years since the French brothers Lumière invented images, the movie world has evolved from silent to Torquay and color. Ozu Yasujiro who saw ‘battle with the wind’ in the battlefield says that watching the image reflected in full color felt that war could not win America who makes such a movie. The first color movie in Japan was “starring Carmen’s hometown” starring Hideko Takamine in 1954. Even at this time still color films are only available for imports, insurance when they failed, they asked the actors to perform the same act twice, he said he was shooting at the same time in monochrome. Furthermore, the era has progressed, and colorization of monochrome movies by artificial coloring is being tried now. Not only movies like “Casablanca” “Roman Holiday”, but also “Ultra Q” can be seen in color.
As for this work, a colorized version of AROUND THE BEATLES is recorded as a similar attempt. Coloring has already been tried on Mr. Claudel Label in 1966 in Munich, in 1964 in Melbourne, but it is still not a vivid full color like original color film, but technology is still developing I can not deny the feeling. However, I hope you enjoy it as one of the different versions from the original, in terms of coloring as possible with the current AI technology. In this work, the full color version and the images that can be compared and compare with the original monochrome video are recorded. These are accompanied by a function that can switch even while watching, so please compare the degree of effect by all means.
【LD VERSION】
It is recording from LD that is now out of print. By recording only the performance part of the Beatles, it is a picture of texture different from film version. Although there is no difference such as a camera angle in contents, it is included as one of different versions. As recorded on the CD, there are two kinds of sound sources, the live version without the overdub recorded in advance for the program, the version in the main broadcast to which cheers etc. were added, and so on. In this video of the LD version, it is made to be able to switch either the selection or halfway.
【ALTERNATE VERSION】
“Roll Over Beethoven” was diverted as a promotional image. The shades of black and white are vivid, and it is probably the best image quality with only one song. “She Loves You” has been rebroadcasted for only one song in recent years. The picture quality is not particularly excellent, and although the sound and picture are slightly out of sync, it is recorded without change as it is unchanged, as it is during broadcasting. “Can not Buy Me Love” is also one song that was rebroadcasted in recent years. Even here, the image quality is excellent until it is fresh, and it is hard to be compared with the previous “Roll Over Beethoven”. Although Paul is the main vocal song, why is the camera switched around mainly John, it is a camera work as if John is singing.
