This is what Paul originally had in mind for "The Long and Winding Road." I really like this version myself. There's a different take (or at least mix) on Anthology 3.
Different take on Ath 3, and my personal favourite. This is the version on 'Naked' isn't it? Can't stand Billy's solo.
Anyway, back to the subject at hand:
Michelle Yesterday (Overplayed and overrated) Don't Bother Me (Not difficult to see why George didn't get much of a look in) A Taste of Honey Dig a Pony (John has no right to critisise Paul if this is the best he can come up with) Got to Get You Into My Life (Because it just doesn't fit) Honey Pie Octopus's Garden Maxwell's Silver Hammer Savoy Truffle Till There Was You
I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.
Yeah, doesn't work. His keyboards are mixed too far forward on the Naked version of "I've Got a Feeling," too: Spector was quite right to bury them, in my opinion.

Yes. Billy was a great musician, but his keys sound terrible on that song. It's just one of the many reasons I don't like 'Naked'.

"Helter Skelter." It's a noisy prank of a song that's hardly worth all the airplay it gets over here. Jokes get tired when they're repeated too often.
i think it is a good song, but the mix of it is all wrong btu then again it was one of the first hard rock songs and George probably hadn't encountered something so heavy before.
guitars to quiet, vocals to loud and all you can hear is drum and bass.

So they invented Drum 'n' Bass!

I think Paul was sending up the then new hard rock/heavy metal idiom in much the way he sent up C & W with "Rocky Raccoon." I don't hate it actually, I just think it gets played too much and taken too seriously for what it is over here. People don't see that it's really a parody- which, of course, is funny in itself, too: but I've laughed at the joke often enough.
But I take your point about a remix, though: might be interesting.
