Crowd noise in intro to Rare Earth's "Get Ready": Live or canned?
- Thread starter ixnay
- Start date
I heard Sirius Classic Vinyl play the whole version this week. There's a long funky intro before the hit version kicks in. You'll notice the crowd noise and the beginning of the popular version sounds cut off. Don't know if the crowd is authentic or not.

I have a 25 minute live version, and the single was not cut from it. However many groups use canned live crowd noise. What about Secret Agent Man?

I thought Secret Agent Man was recorded at the Whiskey A Go Go in L. A.

How about the Tremeloes' "Here Comes My Baby" and its sadly ignored follow-up, "Even the Bad Times Are Good"?

Didn't Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets" use canned crowd noise, at least on the single?

Yes, the crowd noise is canned. In the "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" installment of the "Classic Albums" DVD series, producer Gus Dudgeon demonstrates (by using the original master) how he added the crowd cheers, clapping, and the echo "slapback" effect. The unadorned version of "Bennie" sounds quite dry in comparison.

Re: B-B-B-Bennie and the Canned Crowd Noise
What about the canned crowd that Ray Stevens used in a few of his songs?
Or Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band theme.
Dan Ingram said that Elton John sounded like a motorboat in Ba Ba Ba Benny And The Jets.

UPDATE: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band crowd noises
> Or Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band theme.
From the Abbey Road sound effects collection, that crowd noise came from a performance of some show at the Royal Albert Hall.
Specifically sound from "Volume 28: Audience Applause and Atmosphere, Royal Albert Hall and Quenn Elizabeth Hall" was used for the crowd murmuring. The applause and laughter was from "Volume 6: Applause and Laughter" (aren't those Brits methodical?) taken from a Beyond the Fringe comedy revue at Fortune Theatre, London, 1961 (starring Peter Cook and Dudley Moore).
The audience screaming at the end was taken from none other than the Beatles Hollywood Bowl tapes, which, in 1967, were still unreleased.
The band warming up at the start? That came from some sound effects tapes made during the 10 Feb 1967 orchestral overdub of the crescendo for "A Day in the Life".

Re: UPDATE: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band crowd noises
That is great trivia.
At one time, I listened to about a half dozen volumes of the sound effects records (vinyl). I noticed that the sound of money from one of the LP's was used at the begining of Money by Pink Floyd.
I used some of the sound effects on my radio show. I even combined them. Such as the siren and and someone falling down the stairs.
We had at least fifteen sound effects albums and maybe more than twenty.
