I'm back - I just listened to the versions you have side by side. For the remastered one, the vocal is much more present in the mix. I like how that sounds when it comes in.

I just recently bought myself the new I.K. Multimedia ARC Studio and believe I am hearing more details in my Focal Trio 6's.
I would value your thoughts and comments--------------
I really like your vocal on this one. I have no new input on the mix - it sounds well done to me. The orchestral parts are well done in the mix.
Steve
Thanks in advance,

I have never heard the Steely Dan version of this and I have never heard a guitar front to this song. It sounds great. Excellent playing and great job!
Hi Freddy - I tried to stay close to the Steely Dan version - I've heard a couple of live performances of the original from 1928 and it seems like Steely Dan tried to stay close to that one as well.

Really nice job on the piano part.
Thank you for the nice comment - I have to admit though, the piano part is two tracks.

Hey Steve - thx so very much. The vocal in your version is pretty stunning and the piano dynamics are perfect.
I believe I found what you pointed out after a closer listen to the original. The 1 measure sequence played over Bb Ab major chords, 2 beats each as published in the transcription goes:
Ab5 Ab5 G5 F5 | Eb5 Ab4 C Eb5 G4 Eb5
This does sound good to me (Eb played over an Ab major chord) and that may be why the transcriber heard it that way.
What I think you say is correct is:
Ab5 Ab5 G5 F5 D Ab4 C Eb5 G4 Eb5
If I do that I also have to fix the left hand piano part
That's the one! But I think you just keep the bass like you have.
That section starts with a b flat 7 / B flat in the bass (octave bounce) - The d note then hits by itself quickly followed by an A flat in the bass (octave bounce) which kind of turns the chord into an A flat maj 7.
Don't mind me - I like to keep covers true to the original...some people don't care one way or the other, but particularly with the Beatles, I like to keep them true.

Thx Steve for listening so closely. I was inspired to try posting this here when I heard your excellent version of "For No One."
So do you mean the solo piano part, 13 secs from the start of the song? I am working from the transcription in "The Beatles Complete Scores," 1989. It is not without mistakes (nor am I).
Hi - Thanks for your comment about 'For No One'! Yes it is that one note at about 13sec - I hear it again at about 1:32. I recorded a version of this a while back with some help from people on Bandlab. https://baselines.com/?p=5564

Great instrumentation and the mix is superior - I can hear all the instruments. Love the way it ends, fits the sentiment.
Nice writing Lynn!

You got some of the good ones from Bandlab there. Nice work. I like how that guitar comes in at the end and mixes in with the synth. Good work by all!
