Disney Pleasure Island Info Video from 1990 ommadawnfan 2010-07-06 | Informational video made by Disney about Pleasure Island in 1990. I believe some of this was used in a TV commercial as well.
Paul McCartney & Wings, Soily, One Hand Clapping Sessions denoised ommadawnfan 2024-06-14 | Paul, I love ya, and I love this song. And I know seeing film grain is all the rage in videos these days. But here's how this video could have looked with a simple application of the NEAT video noise reduction plug in. (I hope someone sees this before it's removed, which I know it will be)

YesYears - 1991 Documentary about the band Yes ommadawnfan 2024-03-06 | NOTE! A lot of video footage and some audio had to removed from this upload in order not to be blocked for copyright infringement. "YesYears" is a 1991 documentary about the band Yes. It was released on home video. This upload was made from a VHS tape (I did not have access to the laser disc release of this video).
XTC - The Troubles - Demo Vocals and Band Instrumental ommadawnfan 2023-12-02 | I demixed the vocals from Andy Partridges home demo and synced them to the band's instrumental version of the song recorded during the Big Express sessions. Note the pauses that were intended after certain lines had they finished this version of the song.
Black Rose Party (With Added Music by The Residents) ommadawnfan 2022-06-29 | The footage in this clip is from the 1989 Russian movie "Black Rose Is an Emblem of Sorrow, Red Rose Is an Emblem of Love". The movie, from what I've read (I don't understand the Russian dialogue) is an absurd comedy. But the party scene in this film is completely unlike the rest of the film. When I saw this, my first thought was that the tone of this scene is a kindred spirit to what The Residents' were doing in their unfinished movie "Vileness Fats." So I decided to add some very early Residents music to the film, and I think it works well. The music, incidentally, is called "The Mad Sawmill Of Copenhagen, Germany."
Micky Dolenz on General Hospital ommadawnfan 2022-03-15 | Micky Dolenz as Dr. Logan Mayfield on an episode of the American soap opera "General Hospital." I can't find any information about this appearance online. It's not even on Micky's IMDB page. So I don't know the date when this was broadcast.
Im Bugged - XTC live in 1977 at the Hope & Anchor Front Row Festival. ommadawnfan 2022-01-07 | This song was uploaded by another YouTuber several years ago, but the audio in that video is mono. This video is in stereo. This is XTC live in 1977 at the Hope & Anchor Front Row Festival.
Caballo Viejo - Rattlemouth - Crossroads Coffee 2 24 2012 Audio Sync Fixed ommadawnfan 2021-08-12 | This video was originally uploaded to the ScreamingAvacado YouTube account. The audio was out of sync so I fixed and reuploaded it. This is not my video.
Flash Gordon - City of Sea Caves - 1948 78 RPM Record ommadawnfan 2020-07-07 | The record sounds like it's skipping right after the intro, but it's not. I think it's a pressing error. And to be honest, I can't understand about 25% of what's being said. And I did a TON of noise reduction. Ah, that's 1948 cardboard record tech for ya!

Paul McCartney and Wings, Germany 1972 ommadawnfan 2017-01-10 | This recording is from an old cassette I have labeled "Hamburg 1972." This is incorrect because Wings did not perform in Hamburg in 1972. But I'm sure this recording is from a show in Germany, based on the stage announcement before "I Am Your Singer." I also don't think the songs were performed in this order based on the posted set lists from this tour. Can anyone out there shed some light on where this recording is from? And if so, is there a better sounding version of it out there?0:00 - 18826:26 - Blue Moon of Kentucky10:04 - Seaside Woman14:23 - I Am Your Singer18:16 - Best Friend21:46 - I Would Only Smile25:02 - Say You Don't Mind28:18 - Henry's Blues

William Holden Bridge On The River Kwai Open-Ended Interview ommadawnfan 2014-09-27 | This is the audio from a one-sided single that was released to promote the 1957 movie "The Bridge On The River Kwai." It is an open-ended interview with William Holden, who starred in the movie. The idea is that an announcer would read the accompanying script and it would sound like they were actually interviewing Holden in their studio. I do not have, nor have I ever seen, the script so I don't know what questions are supposed to be asked during the silent sections between the answers (well, mostly silent except for the sound effects in the background that sound like people building a bridge, I guess). But I thought I'd post this for any fans of either William Holden or the movie, as I suspect this single is fairly rare.

Rutles / Beatles mashup ommadawnfan 2014-07-18 | I'm surprised that no one has done this particular mashup before - The Rutles' "Nevertheless" with The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows". Or maybe they have and it got pulled. I guess I'll find out : ).

War Dance original demo XTC Colin Moulding ommadawnfan 2013-12-11 | Before Colin came up with the mournful version of "War Dance" featured on the XTC album "Nonsuch," he had recorded an earlier demo of the song.

Yes Tempus Fugit unreleased early mix ommadawnfan 2013-09-23 | The 1980 radio special "The Yesspecial" contained two songs from the soon-to-be released Yes album "Drama."

This mix of "Tempus Fugit" is similar to the final version but different in a number of ways.The other unreleased mix from this radio special is "Run Through The Light" and can be found at http://youtu.be/YEIn3Q2Mjcw

Bungalow Bill cover version ommadawnfan 2013-09-18 | I recorded this from a BBC "White Album" special. I'm posted it in the hopes that someone will know who performed this and will so post in the comments. (the photo in the video is completely random).
A Talk With Andy Partridge 1986 ommadawnfan 2013-06-18 | I've done the best I've could to clean up the sound from this record of an interview with XTC's Andy Partridge. It's still a bit mumbly and hard to understand in places.

Sounds of the Space Age (Declicked) ommadawnfan 2012-09-03 | This was an audio documentary of the space age as of the first moon landing. It appeared on a flexidisc included with the December 1969 issue of National Geogrphic.There are other videos of this flexidisc on YouTube, but I believe this has the best sound quality of them to date.

The Beatles 45s at 33 1/3 Series - I Saw Her Standing There ommadawnfan 2012-08-20 | When I was a child, I loved all my records, but I loved my Beatles records most of all. And after I had played them each a million times, I would sometimes push the little lever on my Westinghouse portable phonograph from 45 to 33 and play them again. I found that listening experience to be satisfying in its own way (playing them at 78 sounded too cartoonish, though moving the speed lever out of gear and manually playing them backwards was often interesting). I've created this series of videos so other might share in my nostalgia.I've tracked down as many original Capitol 45s in reasonable shape as I could. I didn't do this because Capitol 45s from the 1960s sound good -- they don't -- but because that is the sound I heard while growing up. And if I could have found a Westinghouse phonograph exactly like the one I had, I would have mic'ed up the speaker and recorded the audio that way. But instead, I used a Fisher MT-730 linear tracking turntable with a conical stylus (I'm told that's best for playing styrene 45s, which is what Capitol 45s are). The signal runs through a 15-band EQ that I've tweaked using a test record for flat response, even though it adds noise to the signal. Adobe Audition 1.5 was my recording software and I did declick these recordings.

Some band with 7-string guitars should use this as the jumping-off point for a cover version.
