If you've seen the other WHO posts I've made, you should know the deal. Basically, once a year, a group of mostly Los Angeles-based professional musicians put on a concert to benefit an autism charity. Some of the musicians involved are fairly well known, but there usually aren't any really famous stars. Some of those who performed in this one but generally not the other ones include Gary Wright, Jules Shear, Christine Collister, and the Muffs.
For this show, it just happens that I stumbled across an article in Goldmine Magazine that reviewed the show. So instead of me having to explain a lot, if you want to know more, I suggest you read that article. Here's the link:
Wild Honey Orchestra Does the White Album - Goldmine Magazine: Record Collector & Music Memorabilia
Most of the show consisted of covers of "White Album" songs. But near the end of the concert, other Beatles songs from 1968 were performed, such as the hit singles "Lady Madonna" and "Hey Jude," and the White Album outtake "Not Guilty."
The sound quality of this bootleg recording is excellent, the same as the other WHO shows I've posted. However, like those, I generally only had the songs and not the talking between songs. There are a few exceptions, such as a long explanation about how they played to perform the sound collage "Revolution No. 9" before it started, but they're very few.
This album is two hours and six minutes long.

For the cover, I just used a promotional picture for the concert, with a few modifications. In case it isn't obvious enough, the cover is a nice parody/homage to the "White Album" cover. I cropped it and resized some things to make the text on it larger and easier to read.

ReplyDeleteThe concert is two hours and six minutes in length, in case anyone was wondering. :)
ReplyDeleteOops, I've gotten in the habit of adding a sentence like that, but I forgot it this time. Thanks for reminding me. I just added that in.
DeleteAs I listen to a lot of music while at work, it is nice to have a general idea of just how long one will be, to make sure it fits within the time I have.
DeleteWhat was funny was I initially commented to comment on the fact you hadn't, and initially guessed a running length of maybe an hour and 40 minutes, then realized all I had to do was load it into VLC and it gave me the 2:06:02...only off by 26! LOL
Thanks so much. I am really enjoying these.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot. This is a really really nice one (again)
