I can't imagine Abby Road being cheap and it's literally the same track.

Don't you remember the many photos and snippets from their AbbEy Road session(s)? Luke Ebbin produced Ori's take on ERLHTY, that's why I (we) thought that he was producing the legendary Richie & Ori album-to-be.

Here's some:

From Richie's FB page:

And another pic from a fansite showing that Richie sang on the track too. No photo showing Richie or Ori on guitar or the rest of the band, except Luke, although they were available: June 2014 = they were touring Europe. So Richie, Ori and Luke may have used the Abbey Road Studios to record vocals and mix just one song, ERLHTY for Ori's Japan-only best-of album.

What project exactly? The Richie & Ori album? Or something else?

What ever happened to 'I Got You Babe' ????

I've been sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for it since its teaser.

I vaguely remember all that going down, yeah, just again saying how strange it was to use a legendary recording space to recut the vocals on a single song. *Shrugs* Just seems like that could have been done in any studio.

It'll be released as the B-side to Lighthouse at this rate.

If this goes on like this, Richie will have to realize that he can't get sh1t done outside of BJ, and the band will realize that he's in a worse condition than they'd assumed before. So, good thinking, Rich. BJ will have two albums out by the time you hit the studio the fourth time.

There's no B-side on CDs and Itunes. Are you recycling an old 80's joke?!

I'm pretty sure that "I Got You Babe" is part of a collective project to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the song (I've read tweets by other artists not connected to Richie). But it was released in mid-1965 so it's getting late now...

Actually these will be 2 phantom tracks/Easter eggs on the R&O album that'll be released "after the 1st of next year" (sic)... which means "anytime in the future".
Because, to this day, there's no time machine for artists to release records in the past

Seriously, guys, they said Jan./Feb. 2016, so give them a chance!

Yes, of course, any song can be recorded in any professional studio but I think that the Beatles #1 fan that we know wanted to work at Abbey Road Studios because it's a legendary place that means a lot to him. Look at the video I posted, he seems very (drunk

) moved by just being there.
Recording a whole album or even a whole song would have cost too much + studio time there must be booked months in advance I guess, the demand is high because lots of artists want to see "recorded at ABS" printed on their record sleeves/CD jackets.
Recording vocals over a pre-existing track was the less expensive and available option, it probably took them only 1 hour or 2.

I feel like you're getting very defensive over the situation because we're not giving them a chance to release it. I'm not attacking him by saying that he keeps talking about producers and dates and it keeps changing and getting pushed back. Forget about this era, something like this is textbook Sambora. Working with The Matrix, working with country artists, a re-release of Aftermath, the album after Aftermath they already started, Lighthouse coming out as a download, Sonny and Cher, the album with Ori and him, etc. I'm not being impatient or throwing rocks at the guy, I'm just saying I'm hesitant to believe this will come when they say it will because that's what I'm used to doing. If I'm wrong and it's great, even better, but here is where our expectations are at.

Obviously I know b-sides aren't a thing, you're picking at something that was a light hearted jab at things he says are going to come out.

You couldn't be more wrong about the way I feel! All I'm saying is that throwing stones is too easy. You're saying you're not, OK, but most others do (that's why I wrote, "guyS"). We don't know what's going on so let's not judge the present situation in regards to the past. As a professional in the music & entertainment industry I know all too well that there are a lot more projects that don't see the light of day than projects that do. And in many cases it's not due to the artist but to various unexpected events and drawbacks (money, copyrights, availability, opposing views, terrorist attacks, you name it!). So either you think positive or you're depressed forever. They said Jan./Feb. so I'll give them a vote of confidence... till March!

And then we'll see!

So far, the latest news is that they'll be releasing a single ("Rise") and/or the album 1-2/2016 & they'll be touring in the USA/Europe/Australia with the Russian guy & his band as an opening act. Let's see what happens!

If UMG hadn't dropped Jon, there would have been only 1 album (released in May? 2016) and no Asian tour. See? Unexpected events and drawbacks happen to everybody. Those are perceived as positive by fans but I highly doubt that Jon feels the same (cf BB, Teardrop).

I know it was a joke, didn't I write the word? Why are you so aggressive? You're having a bad day or what?! Relax, dude, nobody got killed!

Fair enough, man. Sorry if I came off to aggressive there. I took what you said in the wrong tone I think and ran with it instead of responding more level headed.
