I was listening to my CDs of Lennon's ultimate mixes and among my collection I found some CDs of the remixes that Peter Cobbin did with the supervision of Yoko Ono in the 2000s of some of John's albums. I was struck by how similar but different they are compared to the ultimate mixes supervised by Sean. Peter and Yoko's remixes have the instruments intact unlike some songs in the ultimate mixes that omit some of them, but they make other types of changes in the sound of some guitars (Well Well Well, they extend solos (like the intro of Hold On), or use another type of eco in certain sound effects (Mother intro).
Even with all this, both versions are interesting and great with their respective changes. Personally, I like the clean and fluid sound that Sean's ultimate mixes have, more laid back without some instruments, more focused and different from the original mixes, a new experience. But I also like listening to Peter's mixes because they sound like what Lennon's albums would have sounded like if they'd had a more polished, less radio-oriented production. I would like to know what yall think about them here, peace and love
