Thanks for the comments. It was fun to isolate George's vocal and "work with him in the studio". Kinda like the "Free As A Bird" sessions! I miss getting a new George album every couple of years to either love or fret over...
"Window, Window: 2003 was a shelved project originally targeted for the 'Brainwashed' release. This 1970 demo recording now has an updated backing featuring Dhani Harrison, Jeff Lynne and Ringo Starr. Official rerelease is slated for Feb. 25th 2009, George's birthday." Actually, no. It's just me (Walrusz) on two acoustics, two slide guitars, two electrics, drums, bass, piano, organ, strings and three backing vocals. And a great respect and admiration for The Quiet One.
I LOVE THIS! I've recently found this track and cosmic empire from the 50th anniversary album. George Harrison truly was a gifted songwriter. Great job with the backing!
Yesterday I didn't even know that this song existed, but today it's now one of my favorite George Harrison songs of all time. I can't thank you enough for your amazing work on this song! It's so important to have people like you so George's legacy can be preserved.
What a great song , George has about 10 of these that could have really Improved living in a material world. Widow window and sour milk sea acoustic version are at the top of my list
I found a stereo version of the demo: just acoustic on one side and vocal on the other. I knew then that I could lower or drop out George's guitar if necessary by separating the stereo tracks as 2 trax in my computer program. Those are my live drums and you can hear how I have to be careful to stay in time. All in all George was very co-operative! I avoided Phil Spector at all costs...
I’m so so happy I found this. This is unbelievably faithful to George’s sound. You should be the one working on each and every Beatles-related remastering project.
Normally, I just walk away and turn my back on anybody who f..... with a Beatle song, but the backing you put on this reaches my highest expectations possible! PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!
Another awesome George song that you put straight so we can hear it and enjoy it as if George is still alive I'm in a way he is still floating in the air through his music! George proves the old saying music is well said to be the speech of angels and you are as helper now!
Until now I'd only had and heard the demo of this, George with his acoustic. A revelation how well it held up with the band and some layered vocals and guitars. Thanks so much.
i can really imagine this tune on one of his 80's LP. it s a beautiful tune. a bit of a Jeff lynne production ideas here.. it really does the song justice !
George"s voice is isolated in the mix (no instruments from the original session are attached) which gives it a cleaner sound. Also, the bare bones session from 1970 of voice and acoustic that Spector recorded that I got this from was done in a high end studio. I was also very careful to put little if any reverb or effects (other than compression) on his voice. I find alot of people who record like to play with the "toys" of effects and easily overdo it. Which in turn kinda dates it. IMO
Может я заблуждаюсь, но разница в песнях написнных Джорджем и Полом такая - песни Джорджа хочется слушать когда душа в раздумьях и ей тяжело, а у Пола таких песен нет, во всяком случае я не смог вспомнить.
Thanks Big Fan...If I knew George was happy with my attempt...I would shed tears of joy. But Dhani!! If you ever come across my work...let me know what you thinK!!!
The melody itself is silly, like George says, like a children's song you think you've heard before but are not sure, but with George's voice, cold and all, and the right musical backing, it's awesome. I also like the lyric, "I get the feeling it doesn't see me," because it could mean a bunch of different things. You did a great job here. I wish we could hear it with George on the electric and doing his own falsetto harmonies.
@FrlghtWolf I agree with you. I think it's that quality that endears some of his work to fans. Being a fan of George Harrison I think is a very personal thing and NOT much of his stuff is for the masses, except for, like you said, 2 or 3 exceptions. Some of his albums I find almost unlistenable, except as curios. Being a Beatle, I don't think he always got the best advice in the studio. But when I like his stuff, I REALLY like it.
I have always wished that the Beatles had recorded this one properly during the Get Back sessions. You did a fantastic job! I would love to obtain a full quality copy of this.
When he went to record "All.Things Must Pass", he had many great songs that we're not includes or recorded. The strange Thing Is that he did not record the best ones on 'Living in the Material World"
So much good here. A lot of attention to detail. You got Ringos feel nicely. And Harrisons guitar. A lot of hard work evident. I'd probably tweak back the compression a good bit on this. Apart from, very well done!
They've published it on the official George Harrison channel, but with comments switched off. I agree, a lovely tune. And the lyrics show how funny George could be. Obviously, for the very same reason (a funny song) it didn't fit on ATMP.
Thanks Faydajova. I have 2 or 3 more songs from the same harrison session on a disc sitting beside my studio harddrive but haven't had the time to seriously check them out (I think Everybody Nobody is one of them). I play in a band (Charlie X...Google us!), record originals, and am trying to get into the radio jingle business! Thanks again for the kind words. There's some pretty good versions of "Now and Then" floating out there.
Thank you to everyone for views and kind comments. Please search out my new reworking of George's "Mother Divine" and let me know what you think. Thanks again, Walrusz.
@markdewe Thanks Mark. And thanks for the tip about the Beatles version. Wow. That's RARE. I've heard tons of stuff but not that. I kinda like how my drumming on my version ended up sounding alot like Ringo's before I even heard it! Thanks again, Walrusz.
Very nice. How in the world, the other Beatles, (George included), could think this track was silly...after enduring Paul's, 'Maxwell's Silver Hammer', I will never understand. Or even 'Baby Your A Rich Man'. I am a huge Beatles fan...but those two tracks...I could do without. This one...is quite nice if you ask me. And you did an excellent job putting it together. Ok...I am done. Rant over. (Just irritates me how controlling John and Paul were, where George's work was concerned).
I love the Harrison songs you have done. Can you do Sour Milk Sea from ATMP demo? Also Om Hare Om, though the demo has drums, your guitar and backing vocals etc would make that even better too!
@@walrusz great. Honestly your versions have to be on Harrison albums lol. They're just how he would have done the songs I'm sure with Jeff Lynne had he worked on those songs further. You have the exact right arrangements he'd have likely gone for
And a very nice job you did, too! I especially like your drums - great sound! I have those demos, too, and a few years ago I went through a similar exercise with "I Don't Want to Do It". It was great to have guitar on one side, voice on the other. Yours came out better than mine. Bravo!
@FrlghtWolf - I definitely agree with you with the "awkward phrasing" description. some of george's songs are a bit verbose as well. but he's still my favorite out of all the Beatles. Miss you Mr. Harrison. Can we get him a posthumous knighthood? Lol.
That is a good job and very close to what George would have done... But it is interesting to see how you can notice in an instant it's not George on lead.....
Sorry if I mislead you kvmusic, it's not going to be an official release (though that would be cool). It's just me having fun in my home studio. I got the demo off of a music file sharing site.
This is actually longer than the demo I got off of winmix. If there's a longer version I don't know of it. If you would like an mp3 of this version, send me your e-mail and I'd be glad to send it along.
Great piano and organ. It's strictly a matter of taste I realize, but the backing vocals I would have left out, because he didn't have such preferences during the making of the album this song was demoed for. However, really, who am I to say? You produced this nice piece, so you get to decide how to deal with it. :)
Window window was first recorded while George was in the Beatles During the get back sessions I think that's why he put the backing vocals reminiscent of the beatles times

Whoever did that really knows George style... Congrats
La voce di George è migliorata molto. A fine anni 80 e anni 90 era molto bella. Negli anni 70 inascoltabile!!

You have really crafted this version with care and respect for George’s work. Thank you a million times.
@@TheBeatlemax Thanks BeatleMax!
Woahh, you are really amazing💖💖💖thanks for this, your work is so wonderful💕
You did a great job.
George’s lyrics allways positive I listen to George every day he has a unique sound I miss him dearly 🙏
Me too
I LOVE THIS! I've recently found this track and cosmic empire from the 50th anniversary album. George Harrison truly was a gifted songwriter. Great job with the backing!
Thanks Nando
It's brilliant backing vocals n-all very well done young man
thanks Seamus
Any new song from George makes me cry.
Very beautiful song

Thanks Popcornman!
Same here
I heard him sing a verse on the Get Back documentary.
It is a really beautiful tune. Thanks for bringing it to me

WOW! Thanks...sign me up!
@@walrusz I would! Just promise me you'd get in Paul's ear about releasing 'Carnival of Light' haha
Listening to this is like hearing a new Beatles tune. You are a genius walrusz.
What a brilliant job you did! Just wonderful!
Thanks PogieJoe!
Normally, I just walk away and turn my back on anybody who f..... with a Beatle song, but the backing you put on this reaches my highest expectations possible! PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks apolonio!
Lovely song. Georges music was so unique . I feel his solo work far surpassed the other ex-Beatles
Play it again George! Wonderful song.
Thank you so much.Very nice,indeed.
This is quite simply the most beautiful version of “Window Window” I have ever heard. I have to think George would approve of this mix.😎🎸☮️
Thanks Judge!
@@walrusz - I will be doing a deep dive into all your Harrison demos in the near future. You do superb work.😊
Great
Wow what a great song! Surprised George didn't put this on one of his records!
Great tune. Shame it wasn't released.
Another awesome George song that you put straight so we can hear it and enjoy it as if George is still alive I'm in a way he is still floating in the air through his music! George proves the old saying music is well said to be the speech of angels and you are as helper now!
I Really Love how you Finished this song! 👍
Thanks Peter!
Until now I'd only had and heard the demo of this, George with his acoustic. A revelation how well it held up with the band and some layered vocals and guitars. Thanks so much.
Brilliant job! It's such a sweet song. George RIP. I wish you were still here making music. xxx
i can really imagine this tune on one of his 80's LP. it s a beautiful tune. a bit of a Jeff lynne production ideas here.. it really does the song justice !

Really great, possibly the best fan finish of a demo I've heard. Lots of restraint and the backing vocals are perfect.

I agree...
Great job, wish there was more freedom to more stuff like this!! I'm sure George would have loved it.
А ведь, кажется, все переслушал... Спасибо!
Great song!
Brilliant!!!!
Like hearing a new Beatle song - thank you. Great work.
Thank you walrusz! Great job, I think George would be happy 🌟💖
Thanks Big Fan...If I knew George was happy with my attempt...I would shed tears of joy. But Dhani!! If you ever come across my work...let me know what you thinK!!!
That was great. It should've been released at the time.
This song should've been released. It's so sweet.
Good song - a keeper.
Lovely job. Really nice work. Beautiful mix. Thanks.
Very great work. I hear George spirit on the guitar. Many thanks...

Good work! Congratulations!
Wonderful song
Hermosa versión que has logrado, espero puedas culminar otras.

I love this demo and you did a very good job, thanks for sharing!
Well if I may say again, AMAZING!
awesome! i loved
really exelente!! very very good work!!1 i like it!!!!! thanks!!!
Thanks much for sharing this! I am a huge GH fan; I had not heard this yet.
When he went to record "All.Things Must Pass", he had many great songs that we're not includes or recorded. The strange Thing Is that he did not record the best ones on 'Living in the Material World"
I'm very Impressed! Good Job! It's nice to see some fans having fun with demos.
Excellent work - this would have made a superb album track.
Great! Thanks
Great job man, and a great song too
very nice....fresh sounding audio, thank you for posting.
Ram on,
Joe.
So much good here. A lot of attention to detail. You got Ringos feel nicely. And Harrisons guitar. A lot of hard work evident. I'd probably tweak back the compression a good bit on this. Apart from, very well done!
Wow! Thoughtful comments Pat, thank you. And looking back on it, yes, I did lean a litlle too heavy on the compression! all the best, Walrusz.
Search this new one out:
"George Harrison Cosmic Empire Rare with new studio backing"
You are clearly fluent in Beatles musical vocabulary. Nicely done!
Thanks John.
I imagine they're available on line under a general search. Thanks everybody for checking out my work with George's demos.
Great great rickenbacker twelve string sound in the solo. Very little of that after Rubber Soul.
Wow,great. George's guifar is singinging. What more? Ringo on the drums?
George on lead vocal and one acoustic guitar. The rest is me.
Extremely talented fella Walrusz thanks again for doing this for us all
They've published it on the official George Harrison channel, but with comments switched off.
I agree, a lovely tune. And the lyrics show how funny George could be. Obviously, for the very same reason (a funny song) it didn't fit on ATMP.
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame... that George didn't release these songs in his other albums?
wow, good song
Good job! Keep it up.
GOLD!

Thanks for the comment Dave. And yes the drums are my third instrument! Good luck with the "Fair Weathered"...

Can somebody give me the guitar chords to that song please?
I like this song very much. Good job. Would rather hear this than My Sweet Lord any day.
I'd say jeff and dhani would be impressed!
How do you make his voice to sound like it was just recently recorded? It's amazing!
This is actually longer than the demo I got off of winmix. If there's a longer version I don't know of it. If you would like an mp3 of this version, send me your e-mail and I'd be glad to send it along.

Somewhat Dylanesque, and that ain't a bad thing.
I believe most of them can be found on the guitaretab website
Hey Walrusz, your work here is pretty amazing!!... congratulations, and please keep on arranging beatle' demos
