Composing : The Beatles' 'Now and Then' Documentary by Geoff Hall

The Beatles' 'Now and Then' Documentary

It's amazing what can be achieved by the use of technology.

Here, this short documentary shows the technology Peter Jackson developed for the 'Get Back' film. It's a fascinating insight into the relationships that made The Beatles so special.

Thanks for sharing Geoff! This documentary blew my mind!

Elena Maro

Fantastic and really up to date with all the conversations currently going on about the use of AI. Thanks so much for sharing, Geoff Hall !

Geoff Hall

Stephanie Munch thanks, Stephanie. I bought the single. Love it and this documentary is so touching, to see them honour John.

Geoff Hall

Elena Maro Hi Elena, yes, I agree. AI has its place, but not at the human level. I thought the video of Scarlett Johansson was hideous, but this is truly great.

Linwood Bell

Somehow I never tire of their stuff. I’ve bought the entire catalog a couple times ( different masters and mono mixes) and I’ve got a lot of the 4trk masters. I really enjoyed the session notes book and for the hardcore fan go with Recording The Beatles. I’ve still got the mania. This is such a bittersweet effort. Glad they did it.

Geoff Hall

Linwood Bell I’m glad you enjoyed it Linwood. John’s voice is so haunting.

Linwood Bell

One of the best voices in all of rock 'n roll. He's a huge source inspiration for me. For my b'day last year my son gave me a numbered print of his from Abbey Road that hangs in my room here.

Geoff Hall

Linwood Bell so cool, Linwood!

Geoff Hall Linwood Bell , I was at Abbey Road for a recording session in Studio 1 in 2019 and the ProTools operator invited us to check Studio 2... The room, the piano and the reverb chamber gave me shivers, will never forget!

Linwood Bell

I'll bet! I'd love to go there some day.

Harri-Pekka Virkki

Beautiful song! Loved it!

Geoff Hall

Elena Maro Elena, that sounds amazing. Such a thrill to do that.

Elena Maro Elena, that sounds amazing. I'd love to go there some day.

Sam Mannetti

Fascinating insight, thanks for sharing Geoff

Geoff Hall

Sam Mannetti you are most welcome, Sam. I just couldn’t pass this one by. The Beatles are part of my youth. My sister and I loved them.

Linwood Bell Geoff Hall we should make a Stage 32 Composing Lounge expedition to Abbey Road ;)

Linwood Bell

I wish....I did buy the Abbey Road cellos today though. :)

Elena Maro

Linwood Bell - Well some good shopping for the studio is always a good start! ;)

Linwood Bell

It's a never ending money pit. I watched Rick Beato's vid on this tune and he showed some software that will pluck out the vocal of a 2 mix. I went to the site and bought 90 minutes of time for $18. I'm working on a project doing some tracks for a 80's pop star and I grabbed the song that I'm working on and with that software got her vocal by itself and have it playing against what I doing for the show. Really helps out a lot. I had to pitch it down a couple steps so that kind of makes it a little weird but all and all what a great thing to be able to do....and cheap.

Geoff Hall

Elena Maro that sounds like a great idea!
