I seriously doubt that John Lennon would want anyone tampering with his music. George Martin once said that John loved to have his voice double tracked. He thought it sounded better that way.I know that perhaps some work needed doing to bring the sound up to date, but to strip double fantasy and bring the vocals more up front. I love The Beatles and John Lennon . I dont think yoko should mess with his music.
Got something to say?
