The Beatles In Mono Remastered Box Set features The Beatles first 10 albums in their original mono along with the “Mono Masters” double CD compilation which includes the original mono mixes for all of their non-album songs that were mixed in mono.

The Beatles Mono CD Box Set is a real “revelation” in some cases. A lot of the band’s earlier songs really sound a lot~better in mono than they do in stereo because they were originally mixed in mono and the stereo mixes were often done as an “afterthought” (because stereo wasn’t taken very seriously at the time.) Many of The Beatles stereo mixes are totally “wrong” by the standards of today because they pan everything to one side or the other which can be unsettling to listen to (particularly when listening on headphones.)

It’s good to be able to hear songs like “Taxman” & “Eleanor Rigby” without the wide panning that mars their stereo mixes.

But there’s more differences to these mono mixes than just the panning. In quite a few cases there are actually different takes and different effects used! And in many more cases different instruments/parts are highlighted in the mono mix vs. the stereo mix.

A great example of a different mix in mono vs. stereo is “Helter Skelter” because it’s almost a full minute shorter in mono than in stereo and it doesn’t include the “blisters on my fingers” yell at the end.

Another good example is all of the extra vocal effects on the mono version of “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.” But really a lot of the songs on the mono Pepper have a lot more vocal effects than do their stereo brothers.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the Beatles Mono Masters Compilation is that it includes four previously unreleased mono mixes (“All Together Now,” “Hey Bulldog,” “Only a Northern Song and “It’s All Too Much.”) These four songs were never released in mono (in any format) before because when the Yellow Submarine album was first released in ’69 it was only released in stereo (which is why the entire album is not included in the mono box, the George Martin instrumentals were never mixed in mono) so these mono mixes were shelved in Abbey Road Studios for 40 years before finally being heard in 2009.

After observing some bands both past and present it is clear that some of them really do love to throw their money away.. Is this for effect for the fans, a crowd pleaser or literally because they earn so much money they can do what they want, when they want to.

Musical instruments really do not come cheap no matter which one you play and if you are seeking out the best of the best it is going to cost you a small fortune each time you buy a new one. However some bands choose to smash their things after every single set.. However when it comes to bands some choose to smash their gear after every single set they play. Kurt Cobain nearly always insisted on jumping headfirst into Dave Grohls drum kit or smashing his guitar onto the floor of the stage along with himself. They were in fact a very popular band, only breaking up after the death of Cobain. Well the drugs certainly could have had an affect on his minds ability to think before acting but he seemed to be able to play the guitar and sing just as well. What actually led him to enjoy wrecking the stage as he did.? Well the drugs could have had an affect on his minds ability to think before acting but he seemed to be able to play the guitar and sing just as well.

Not the fans who started listening to Nirvana when they became huge in the early 90s but the fans who has listened to them since the album Bleach as Cobain did not like his fame at all? The Nirvana fans were the same as any other rock fan. Not the fans who started listening to Nirvana when they became huge in the early 90s but the fans who has listened to them since the album Bleach and whose devotion made the success possible. Nirvana fans were just like any other rock fans at the time. The fact is that it doesnt happen as much as it used to and it is perhaps down to a fad where the fans loved to see the artists tearing apart the equipment they had used.

Of course if you are more into Disc Jockeying then perhaps smashing those expensive DJ speakers is not the best course of action to take, also make sure to have those DJ headphones on standby to ensure your safety.

Anyone who is willing – young and old alike – can learn how to play the piano. Books and printouts can be referenced at the piano, making them preferable to online tutorials. In either case, it is as easy as A-B-C to learn how to play the piano.

Before beginning to learn how to play the piano you will want to attain lesson data. Sheet music and piano books for beginners is what you will need to gather. These can be purchased from local bookstores, music stores, and even online (requires downloading and printing). If you are interested in DVD material, sites such as http://www.learn-and-master-piano.com provide reviews of some popular programs. Second-hand or used book stores are options for the thrifty spender, too. Once you have acquired a fair amount of “piano for beginners” material, it is time to begin.

The letters A through G represent the piano keys. As a beginner, immediately familiarize yourself with Middle C The keys on the right of middle C are the high notes, the left being lower notes. Keys colored black are known as “flat” (b) and “sharp” (?), while white keys are termed “natural”. A black key can be sharp and flat because sharp means the black key is a step higher than a natural key, and flat means that the black key is a step lower than a natural key. Focus on memorizing the natural keys before trying to make sense out of the dual sharp and flat keys.

To aid with learning how to play, you should know where to place your fingers. Your thumb of your right hand is assigned to middle C with the other fingers fanning out over the white D, E, F, and G keys. Then place the thumb of your left hand on the white B key to the left of middle C and position the fingers accordingly across C through E. Your fingers should rest lightly on or over the keys, with a slight curve to your fingers.

Once you are competent in knowledge of the keys and comfortable playing them easily by memory, it is time to learn sheet music. An illustration similar to the one below ought to be included in one of your lesson books; it shows the piano notes on chords.

Learning how to play songs is the next step once you are proficient with sheet music basics, in addition to having memorized the piano keys and finger placement. Routine practicing will eventually render your beginning lessons too easy at which time you can investigate more challenging lessons and music geared towards intermediates. When you continue to perfect your lessons you can turn your focus to harder songs, piano technique, music theory, and chords.

After learning how to play piano via the basics offered in this article, you can proceed to acquire additional expertise. Always consider that playing the piano can be more difficult for some people than others. Learning to play the piano will be a hard yet gratifying journey.

Even those not interested in entertainment news will have seen or heard about the video footage of Kanye West jumping on the stage during the 2009 MTV video awards whilst Taylor Swift was making her acceptance speech.

Taylor is no idol of mine, and I think the MTV video awards are a waste of time, but really – it was her big moment. As a society, has all respect and decorum been forgotten about? Apparently so, after looking at the lyrics that Kanye uses in his songs. Now having done that, and ruined my appetite for the day, I really don’t think it’s that out of character for him.

Which brings me to another point – why does pop music have to be so freakin’ lifeless? Most of the stuff in the charts is just crap icing on top of crap cake. These days I just can’t be bothered with pop music. It probably says something about our culture that we don’t even care to think beyond the shallowest levels in anything that we do. All most people want is pithy, nonsensical platitudes in our music and copies of copies for the rest of their lives.

Yet that’s another tangent altogether, so let’s get back to Kanye the moronic egomaniac. Should we be surprised? Probably not In a world where idiocy is rewarded with airplay and publicity, more of the same can be expected. Everybody wants their five minutes of fame even should it be someone elses five minutes of fame that you’re taking. I have no idea why we should take any notice of what these people say or do. Do they have any qualifications that would make me want to value their opinion?

Of course, the same is true here – who cares what I say or do? Who I am to be giving my opinion??  I love to rant and rave about anything that crosses the circuits in my little brain – whether I’m qualified to comment on it or not.

I guess I should try writing pop music…

If you are seriously considering purchasing the entire collection of Guitar Hero then without a doubt it is going to cost you a small fortune this is fact. The big question that needs to be put to you here is that if you are interesred in playing musical instruments then it may be a good idea to actually go out and learn to play a real intrument rather than spend your money on plastic ones?

In the long run is Guitar Hero going to be cheaper for you?? If you perhaps know someone who plays already then why not ask for lessons they are sure to give you a low price or if you are very lucky, free lessons? Just to put it into perspective for you the entire kit with drums, guitar and one of the games is going to cost you at the very least £250. What happens if you have already got all of the GH games before this one? In reality you most likely have more than one guitar which costs £70 each as well as each game costing £40.. This is only if you have the original games. There are of course now many other games such as Guitar Hero Aerosmith and on top of all of this you may have bought DLC for the games which really only means one thing, more costs to you. Which one is going to be cheaper now??

However with DJ Hero now on the horizon will people put down their DJ equipment and give in to the DJ mixer which is going to be the new DJ Hero?

There is no sure way to tell at this time but the hype has certainly not been the same for this as it was for Guitar Hero back in the day. Playing Guitar Hero is never going to replace the skill and satisfaction of playing the songs you love on a real guitar, but that is not what the company are after. They simply want people to have a bit of fun with a few friends and that is not a bad thing.
