I managed to get my hands on the new Beatles CD “Love” today, and It’s so good I need to share some of it’s fantastic compositions. Incase you’re wondering about the “new” Beatles CD, it’s from a collaboration with Cirque Du Soleil, who have a stage show set to music specially mixed by longtime Beatles producer George Martin and his son Giles… The result is an official Beatles mash-up CD as songs are mixed together seamlessly to create a whole new sound.
Love samples 130 songs to create 27 musical pieces. The songs are mixed so that the lyrics and instrumentation from one song blend into the next. One musical highlight of the show is the new version of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (see below) that matches the first studio demo of the song with a string arrangement written for Love by Sir George Martin.
I’ve also included the mash-up of Drive My Car, The Word and What You’re Doing to highlight the blending of multiple songs.
