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. Of course there are many people who don’t know they exist. But Giles has hinted at “forums” and I’m sure that’s one of them. All he has to do is google himself and I’m sure that shithole pops up.

I was implying that anyone who does know that the shites exist hate them (or runs a label reissuing 80s albums... aw who am I kidding, he hates them too)

Let us not forget this gem from "Malachi": "[The Steve Hoffman Forum] is a total shithole cuz sure they ban all political talk but anything negative about their "host" also gets removed... i mean if you like to talk about beatles and stones pressings all day, i'm sure SHF is quite nice. personally, i find it quite boring and filled with a lot of people who have no idea what the fuck they're talking about."

The one thing I know, Giles has a face I'd like to punch. He looks like an aging frat boy with an alcohol problem.

Eh. What et tu, Barry? Diament was an employee at WEA, transferring analog to digital from who-knows-where-from sources onto digital. Purpose was to get product out. ASAP, the demand was enormous. I followed enough of Diament's poats at SHiTEville back when to understand how his memory as to what he had done when and how was basically blank. How could he possibly remember specific transfers when his actual function was basically as a cog of an assembly line? No one could possibly remember that shit. Point is, Diament was nothing more than one of many who were frantically churning out digital files for the (then) new format. Reversed channels, hard limited transfers and fucked up speed issues tell the story of a Joe Blow, no more.

Most of the forum will have keener ears and understand the options for remixing. However, for my ears, the Taxman remix bothers me: 1. The count in is edited to leave out the “1”. Seems they didn't think important. That pause and anticipation along with the bit of growl on the count-in, always signaled a new Beatles that cared about they liked first & foremost. Very “punk”. Wow, its like taking off the “1” in sgt peppers reprise. 2. The new centered mix seems”tame”. George’s voice sounds boxed in.. 3 Macca’s guitar solo seems more pop than the killer original that took the track to a different place - a damn good rock solo. Why! My only uneducated guess is to optimize headphones & atmos? Geez, but the count in…is really making Taxman ‘22 a sore thumb for me. “Tax Man” not “Taxman” indeed…

If this is the reception Taxman has got, I can’t wait until they release some of the non-filler.

I listened on Amazon Music and it does seem cut off. It's there on "th'toob," however. I can't speak for any other streaming platforms.

I think quboz or something has it with the 1 chopped off. I can't keep up with page after page of nonsense over there.

It’s definitely missing from the beginning of the iTunes download. (But, since it’s right there on the YouTube video, maybe it will be corrected.) Although, it’s possible it won’t be fixed. I once bought the “Hey Bulldog” video. Its opening is also missing, yet after all these years, it has never been updated.
