Taxman solo was performed by Paul McCartney (he played guitar in the beand before learning Bass back in their Hamburg days) because Harrison was the lead vocals on the track. Good Morning, Good Morning I believe was one of those Lennon off-the-cuff songs based on the sounds he heard one morning while trying to write a song, he heard Good Morning, Good Morning on the TV or radio. Also an interesting example of his early sound sampling interest. Keep in mind that these were all mixed off tape on I think 4 track mixers (for this album) so it probably was pretty innovative at the time.

That's kind of a bummer. Not a huge deal, but still... Awww, you can’t mess around before the drum part kicks in? That’s kind of a bummer. Not a huge deal, but still…

Peppers / With a Little Help -- it's clever if a little odd to suddenly see weird stuff happening all around the band. Very neat idea though. Going to replay some of the songs on drums before getting deeper into the trippier/longer songs. Just did the one: Sgt.

Makes the experience more rock star-ish. \m/ Get one with a round, weighted base so you can push it around.

Do you have a mic stand? I'm thinking of rigging up my mic to the ceiling fan, as ghetto as that sounds, but I'm open to other ideas.
