Crunchy, gritty guitars in 1963! Yes, and they were front and center (but in the left channel) on the opening track of With The Beatles, the band’s second album. This distinctive sound came from the natural overdrive of a Vox amplifier’s tubes (or valves)—a tone that wouldn’t be widely popularized until much later. After listening to this song for 61 years, I never truly noticed it until I began working on this remix.

'It Won’t Be Long' is a simple yet powerful recording, featuring just two guitars, bass, and drums accompanying the vocals. But within that simplicity lies a glimpse of the raw, growling British amp overdrive that would become legendary. That signature crunch became the focal point of this remix.

The original stereo mix placed all instruments in the left channel and all vocals in the right—typical for The Beatles’ early two-track recordings. My remix restores some of the lost character by centering the vocals while spreading the guitars across the left and right channels. The bass and drums have also been repositioned to the center, adding much-needed gravity and punch, which in turn enhances the dynamics of the guitar work. To create more vocal depth, I’ve moved Paul and George’s harmonies away from John’s lead vocal.

Nothing new has been added—no triggered drum machines, no additional musicians. This is purely a de-mixing and isolation of the original elements, carefully rebalanced in a style true to the 1960s era.

Thank you so much for listening!
