For Cirque Du Soliel - The Beatles LOVE - Beatles mashed up and remixed by Sir George Martin ....

How do you arrange the music for an ALL Beatles show ? .... Why, you hire Sir George Martin, the 'Fifth Beatle'; the man responsible for so many great Beatles arrangements and who produced nearly all the great Beatles Albums .... of course ....

At first I wasn't too fond of the idea .... What ? .. Mashup Beatles songs ? ... How absurd !

But the album kinda snuck up on me, and now I'm a big fan ... Sir George and his son Giles retrieved the original tapes from all those great works, and condensed a great many songs, using modern mixing tools and enhanced audio processing, to bring the songs back to life .... ALL the clips and remixed material is from Beatles music, and only Beatles music .... Many of the whole songs are simply remixed and re-balanced .... The vocals from Eleanor Rigby, for instance, are superior to the original in their timbre, fullness and silky smoothness ... My opinion ....

It's not for everybody, but see what you think .... The entire album .... The added video was edited by the uploader ... another fan video thingy .... some nice clips ....
