Notes


Speed Corrected and EQ'd by MasterJedi.

So this one was already pretty good, but someone had done a bit of a hack job on speed correcting the tracks. They are fixed now. Also, the EQ was off compared to the released mono mixes. This was also fixed.

Spank Records Silver SP-104

Early White Album mixes passed by Ringo to Peter Sellers
Liberated Spunk Records bootleg (not later over-compressed Japanese Masterdisc)
Excellent rare mono mixes

There are two obvious differences between this and the CV. The first, it is slightly shorter (about two measures have been removed after the second verse, just before Ringo begins to hum). Second, there are childrens voices at the end where he wishes everybody "goodnight." Because the orchestration is so incredibly lush, it is impossible to detect any significant differences between the two. The song was mono mixed for LP on 11 October, but there were also six mono mixes at the end of the 23 July sessions, and this is most likely RM 6 from that session.

There are a few interesting differences between this and the CV. The tape begins witha few seconds of chat and riffs, there hand claps during the intro (the mono CV does not have them, although the stereo CV does), and at the very end, after John says "thank you," he adds, "I'm sure." There was a final mono mix for the LP version on 12 October, so this is probably the last remix from 15 July, MR 21.
