From Maccawings: "Well that bites, I waited until 1201am for the Oh Darlings songs to come out and nada! Went to bed, woke up and still nada. Wrote my friend to see what’s up and apparently they pushed it back......that sucks!" But Macca, I thought you were an insider?

Friday is supposed to be Oh Darling Oh! Darling Take 4 out tomorrow (plus the remix of course). Around 2 pm BST Well that bites, I waited until 1201am for the Oh Darlings songs to come out and nada! Went to bed, woke up and still nada. Wrote my friend to see what’s up and apparently they pushed it back......that sucks! Well, @mikecarrera reported 2pm BST. It's 2:30 to go. Ok, hope my buddy is wrong then!! Was looking forward to today. Guess it’s possible I misunderstood pushed back that sucks if pushed back! but on the other hand, maybe they are just adjusting dates as another release will be announced soon in between AR50th promotion and before AR50th release date I've heard. (and it's not the Singles box set) Start the thread! :righton: There is already one! shhh (and I didn't started it and have no plans for now to talk about it) As far as Oh Darling, a friend in radio was at the listening event on Monday where he was told Oh Darling would be out this Friday and when I was asking about the event, told me. When I didn't see it at 1201am and then again early this morning, I emailed to ask if it was still coming and told it had been pushed back by Apple. No timeline given but decision was apparently made mid week

My insider who lives in Canada (you don’t know them) said this track may or may not get released.

But Apple's changes its plans all the time, folks. My insider source told me this.

I can't bring myself to browse 400 pages of Abbey Road chatter, but Is *anybody* in SHitetown roasting those "insiders" about the big Oh Darling letdown? Or would that get a SHite sent to the cornfield?

Not a Fremer fan but his account of the "Listening Event" debacle is pretty hilarious!! It confirms our suspicions about the elite golden-eared ones. Apparently they could have put on an old 8-track tape and the Beatles Insiders there would have grooved on it ecstatically.
I'm telling you what happened next not to embarrass or humiliate anyone but simply to do my job as a reporter: "Come Together" started and it was immediately clear that something was technically "untogether" with the playback. Everything was centered as if in a mono mix! The sound was muddy and exaggerated on bottom and the top end was missing. I couldn't have been the only one sitting there hearing what was terribly wrong and hoping that playback would be halted until it was fixed.
I grew increasingly agitated in my seat. I remember saying to myself "Okay, I know they like to give us the full bottom, but this is ridiculous". I could hardly contain myself. I looked around and there were closed eyes and a lot of "grooving" going on. "Something" was also in mono and clearly it was mono of one of the two tracks centered! Things were missing. What is going on? I almost stood up and shouted "STOP THE SHOW THIS IS WRONG!!!!"
I almost did, but stopped myself. When "Here Comes the Sun" played and there were no handclaps (among other crazy off-kilter and missing elements), I turned to the guy sitting next to me and I said "This is mono!". He said "I don't know, I kind of like it. It sounds very direct!" I said something else to him that I can't recall but before I was finished a guy down the row hit me with some big air brakes as in "SHHHHHHHSSSSHHHH!" I was interfering with his soaking in all of this remixing "genius" and the completely new "take" he was getting from this classic album.
When it was over and the lights came on, Mr. Hayden (who I've know for many years, probably decades now), was embarrassed and profusely apologized for the awful sound and the playback screw up. I blurted out "Why didn't you just stop it?" He said later outside the screening room that he kept hoping it would be fixed, but unfortunately it was not.
Were maccawings and the exalted mikecarrera present? Or was carrera having another one of his sick headaches?

Well, yeah, Apple makes spur of the moment decisions weeks before releasing an expensive product. That’s what you do with a multi-million dollar property that is largely considered to be a cultural touchstone.

I would laugh in the "groovers" face, and punch the dude that shooshed me.
