I'm sure you know;as George Martin tells it;the album was made "sort of with floor sweepings".---out takes off the cutting room floor.At the end of "American Beauty" a group does "Something"/or was it "Because"?.Great vocal/horible accompaniment. I dug out my cd,I hadn't played in ages. I must have played it 10x's.The sonics are so-so,but I love Paul's bass lines. Hiss?,- you must be playing it to loud.Maybe my hearing "ain't so good". Over the years as I upgraded;I have rediscovered many treasures I already owned. Emmylou Harris to name one.I saw her in person 5 x's One time at the Palimino Club, where I was sitting very close,another time at a club on Sunset,also close. I'de come home and listen on vinyl. The playback stuff I had at the time"killed" her voice.After spending "millions" she sounds fantastic. She has this wispy-fragile voice that is demanding on equipment.I am listening to Ab.Rd,as I type this --no hiss,to me.Let's see if someone chimes in, so we know fer'sher' I AM deaf,and the recording hisses.GREAT music tho.
ABBEY ROAD TAPE HISS
Hi all!I kind of have a feeling this question is in vain but,is there a vinyl re-issue that has somehow eliminated the hiss this album is known for? The CD and vinyl both have it.I could never figure out how that was missed when this awesome album was produced.
