Not only did Giles say he wanted to reflect the history but then quotes Paul implying that he thought it was silly including a lot of versions and then does it anyway. Why? Because as you see the bolded in the quote, he thought the audience wanted the same song over and over - we didn't and don't - we wanted exclusive to Get Back actual unreleased Beatle songs and later released solo songs - how did Giles not know? He never says Paul said no to anything - Paul questioned exactly what Giles ended up doing - we didn't want 5 of the same 12 songs - we all know the outtake song names we wanted- I don't have to list what's missing. Worst of all - every time Giles Martin talks outtakes or Beatle fans he's somewhat condescending - and Peter Jackson embraces The Beatles like a superfan - he embraces the fans like a fellow fan - he gets giddy that Beatle fans loved the doc. Us fans are just a bother to Giles. We're never happy according to him -we always want too much. He laughs at us. "The boxset is trying to tell the story of the record" - no Giles you left out pretty much every single unreleased song fans that reflected the history. Look at how he thinks of Beatle fans and record collectors - Giles Martin:
My belief is always: If someone had never heard the Beatles before, then they should be interested in what they’re hearing. There’s no point in having a record just so you have it. You’re meant to listen to it. Do you know what I mean? There’s people that just want to own stuff. And that’s not why we’re doing what we’re doing.--- His assumptions show he just doesn't actually converse with Beatle fans. I mean these comments are like he's in another world Cornflake- he wants to cater to the person who has never heard of The Beatles!!! That's like the smallest category of the human race. Giles - people want to own stuff - that's called a record industry - you work in a record industry. You are making products so we can own them. Now you're concerned with what we do with our hard earned pay purchases? And none of us open any boxsets right Giles? At least Mark Lewisohn doesn't treat us like that - he treats us like he wants to give us the world. Peter Jackson wants to give us the world. They are Beatle nuts and Giles doesn't even seem like a fan. |

Giles and Whoppie are the gifts that keep on giving.
Imagine, being able to live rent-free in the heads of SHites everywhere.
They are my heroes!

I think WHOPPIE is looking to break that lease.

He's obviously visited Hoofman's site then.

New Beatles/solo releases every year since 1962, but yeah they’re barely feeding the cash cow.

Actually in my opinion Giles butchered Abbey Road, especially the two Lennon songs, Come together & I want you (she’s so heavy). On Come together John’s lead vocals take a back seat especially at the end of the song when he sings the “Awwwwww” part before going into the Come Together repetition closing out the song (fade). The “Awww” vocal is completely buried and it’s vital to the mood of the song. Lennon was one of the very best, all time, “mood setting” singers. In I Want You it’s Lennon’s over and over repeated guitar chord which originally sends the listener into a trans that Giles wrecked. It’s no longer prominent and even the bloody sensitizer overtakes Lennon’s guitar. No idea what he was thinking about when he remixed it that way. Just writing this and thinking about still upsets me a bit.

And I love the fact that there’s forums going, “I’m never gonna listen to anything Giles Martin does.” It just means they’re just passionate about stuff. I have no issue at all. I think it’s great. They’re the ones listening to the stuff. It’s all the people that aren’t listening to the albums that I want to get to. Gee, I wonder which forum he’s thinking of…? (Ha ha, SHites! Giles doesn’t care at all about your incessant whining. Go ahead, bitch all you want. He actually enjoys it!) |

Be nice to the SHites, it's been a tough couple of months for them. First audiophile heroes Mofi crushed their spirit with the digital confessions. Now Giles Martin & The Beatles are selling them short on the Revolver Box. No Blu-ray no sale! they are proclaiming. That'll show them. |

Well, reading between the lines there I hear: "As long as the rubes are still lining up to buy all the rehashed shit I continue to peddle out for the company, what the fuck do I care about some fucking Forum? Fuck 'em. Pony up, sucker!"I'd be enjoying that too.  |

Worth pointing out that the interviewer is a SHiTE (poats as cwillman) so I guess he leaned on that for a quote from Giles. |

So, James McCartney, Sean Lennon (or Julian if Sean is too ethnic), Dhani Harrison, and Zak Starkey should form a new Beatles, but GOD FORBID Giles Martin ever mix an album.

I'm not saying that everyone in "the biz" hates the Shites. I'm sure there are many people who don't know that they exist.
