Good lookin' out, man.
it looks like he just stuck a finger in her ass and said "shhh, it's ok."
gotta love the internets!
However listening to the original mix is so refreshing. It reminds you of why this modest track is a classic.

Honestly, they're amazing learning tools more so than anything else.
I mean, what are YOU gonna do to Issac Hayes "Look Of Love"?
Add a breakbeat underneath?
Make a clurb remix?
It's a classic! Damn near perfect!
I was amped when I got "Look Of Love". I figured I'd do some crazy remix...then I played it out, isolated tracks, listened to the playing, the groove, the bleed between mics, all the nerdy studio shit you'd expect. Realized I learned a great deal from it and really felt any kind of attempt to remix would pretty much be disrespect...but maybe that's just me.
Regardless, whoever is leaking these I>please/I> keep it up!
are there more out there??
I've been playing around making a mix in protools just for fun and I'm really surprised how distorted the top end is on all the tracks when you solo them. I knew that the vocal mic pres at motown always give that distorted saturated sound but it sounds like that happens on all the tracks to a degree. The crash cymbals, the high notes on the strings even the bass sounds like its really being pushed. Is it the preamps or a heavily saturated tape that gives this? Anyways it sounds amazing, it's incredible how well the tracks come together and glue so tightly, it's hard to mix this badly.
I was also surpised to hear how little kick drum is going on, Jameson's bass fills the space right up though perfectly.
I wonder how much eq and processing is going on in these tracks? There's got to be some.
This is the first I've heard of the multitracks from these sessions, but I know some from Stax were released not too long ago.
yeah i was gonna say. I knew of the stax and that's it. I still haven't been able to find what stax they sent out. I know friends of mine that have 10-20 them I believe. I just don't know what they are.
can anyone link me to the look of love tracks?
this is dope.

I think it's time to take this thread to Real Heads...
Now I just found this:
"...Having secured a partnership with the soul flagship, Stax, Rock has acquired several multitracks from some of the label's rarer sessions. By having the ability to solo, mute and sample tracks within Pro Tools' interface, Rock's taken a closer listen to techniques in the age of analog production. In many ways, that has expanded his compositional vocabulary. ???Producers from the Stax era paid a lot of attention to stuff like hooks, choruses, building bridges and drum breaks. When you listen to it track by track, you start to learn how to break away from the loops and add to the dynamics. I'm trying to bring that to hip-hop producers.???
Good article imho:
