Anomalies
0:30-End * NEW *
Up to here the
tambourine playing was
solid. But, from 0:24
onwards, as Kent Rodway
put it, " for the last
half of the song, it
fades out, quits, hits
out of beat, overall, a
very poor effort. Or
perhaps they cut it and
meant it that way..." In
fact, on listening to
it, what is actually
happening is that the
tambourine fades down
every time Paul adds his
backing vocal lines,
beginning with two "Mean
old man" lines, and then
for every line of vocals
onward where Paul joins
in on harmony. This
seems like a compressor
problem, everytime the
vocal comes in (louder
than the tambourine) it
drives down the level of
the tambourine. |
