Re: Take It Easy-stripped down to vocals
I didn't count the silent parts at the start an end. I looked up how speed should affect pitch and I think speeding up by that amount would shift from G to A ie a full tone. Does that seem plausible?
The calculation I did was to take the Hz equivalent for G and multiple by 3:16/2:56 which gave me a Hz value approximating to A.
Re: Take It Easy-stripped down to vocals
Very interesting. A full tone is quite a lot, bu then again twenty seconds is quite a lot! I checked the version on YouTube with a guitar that had been recently tuned. It was on A flat according to that. I think Buffyfan145 is right about the reason behind speeding it up.

I don't know anything about this technical stuff. I just loved hearing their voices so raw! :heart:

The "technical stuff" in this case means that if a song is sped up, the voices can sound like Mickey Mouse. :-) Exaggerating of course, but often the singer doesn't sound like him/herself when a song is sped up. In this case though, I think they can easily be recognized.
Re: Take It Easy-stripped down to vocals
Yes the demo sounds sped up as I've never heard glenn sound like that. It seems the demo has a more 60s, rootsy flavour as opposed to the smooth 70s sound of the final released version the biggest difference is when Glenn sings 'make' it easy at one point probably a slip that I noticed because I know that song so well. The harmonies and backing vocals are practically the exact arrangements.
It would be nice to know the date as this must have been before the recording sessions for the album but after they decided to ditch the heavy Rn B style version they played in Aspen
Re: Take It Easy-stripped down to vocals
Yes thank you for posting this, it is absolutely beautiful!
Re: Take It Easy-stripped down to vocals
Now the multi-tracks are available - somehow, someway. I wonder if that's Glenn on acoustic guitar? He's so steady. Wish I could play like that.

Loving the bass - that starts about 15 minutes in.

Have you listened to this one? Is it real?

Amazing. Again, it's speeded up a little but still ... :thud:
Maybe the rarities are finally coming out of the vault. Let us pray. I want to hear the studio version of Randy's epic "Wait and See/I'm a Sinner."
Here is the Meistro's isolated bass from "One of These Nights":
