multi-track recording (George Martin )


About George Martin I like two pieces among his recording works – “Love Me Do/PS I Love You “ & “ The Family Way “. The first one is recording 1962. The single one gained the top 20 grades on British list. It is recorded in mono at 44100hz 32 bit float. It gives me a feeling of digital sound cause the monorail synthesis. The heavy beat by drums as the back track which is combined with dialogue in front. In the middle, the guitar played an important role. “ The Family Way “Written by Paul McCartney for the film of the same name and recorded in November 1966 by George Martin and his Orchestra. The instrumentation used in this version is more in the vein of "For No One" (recorded in May '66) and "Penny Lane" (recorded a month later in December '66). Released as the single you see here, this was the B-side. The A-side being the same tune but slower and with classical guitar, flute and strings called "Love in the Open Air".


George Martin began recording classical music specialising in the Baroque period. As a producer he has been responsible for bringing a host of artists into recording studios particularly in the humorous field with brilliant performers.
