No, no-- not the Theramin. And, while the keyboard being used might be a Hammond B3, it sounds definitely as if some post-FX of some sort have been introduced to the sound. I'm just always curious about what "tricks" were available, say, pre-1968. -
Hear that treatment given the percussive organ during the verses of "Good Vibrations"? It sounds like it's beng flanged or phased or something... both the amplitude and overtone aspects are being affected. What studio FX would've existed in 1966 to modulate the organ like this? It sounds kind of like that weird "aquatic" sound that Vinnie Bell was using on his guitar in those days... [video=youtube;TCeD_6Y3GQc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCeD_6Y3GQc

And let's not forget the contributions from the 50's. We need a really good dissection of the true meaning of Purple People Eater. Well, for one thing, it had one eye.

What do you make of "Arms that can only lift a spoon" ? The little video above shows some starving African tots... yet I'm thinking this Swingin' Sixties lyric might've been referring to something else.

Aren't some of those lyrics wrong? Sun coming out in the middle of June... That correction is clear from the vocal. Less clear, but more logical is this one: Hearts full of motives painted green (Get it? Green with envy?) . Yes, some of these lyrics ARE wrong. Sorry. I got them off of one of those "lyrics" websites. I think a number of those lyrics websites are compiled by folks for whom English is not a first language.

Everyone's Gone to The Moon (Jonathan King, 1965) Streets full of people, all alone Rows full of houses, never home Church full of singing, out of tune Everyone's gone to the moon Eyes full of sorrow, never wet Hands full of money, all in debt Sun disappears in the middle of June Everyone's gone to the moon Long time ago, life had begun Everyone went to the sun Hearts full of motors, painted green Mouths full of chocolate-covered cream Hands that can only lift a spoon Everyone's gone to the moon Everyone's gone to the moon Everyone's gone to the moon uuY0ux8So_4 Shame you can't hear it here in Stereo, because the production really is quite sophisticated for 1965.

Gawrshk, by no means. It just seems, on vinyl, all the taped sound FX blended seamlessly into the musical textures. When listening to a remastered CD, with headphones, I can hear the tape splices of all the "silly" sound FX that were blended into the Beatles' music... Digital has a way of bringing out the "warts" of an old analogue production. We all here know that. On the other hand, digital can put me in awe of just what they WERE capable of doing in "the good old days". Like John Hammond's production of Simon & Garfunkel's BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER album.... Those silvery strings on "Bridge"! The dazzling crashing backbeats on "The Boxer" ! How on earth?
