Beatles Baby! is the tenth studio album by Caspar Babypants. Caspar Babypants is the fun music name for Chris Ballew. He is also known as the lead singer of the band The Presidents of the United States of America.
This album has 21 cover songs. These are new versions of original songs by The Beatles. The album was made for both children and their parents to enjoy together.
Making the Album
Caspar Babypants, also known as Chris Ballew, did not plan to make another Beatles cover album at first. But one day, he woke up singing "Strawberry Fields Forever". This gave him an idea! He felt inspired to learn many more Beatles songs. He learned them on his special two-string and three-string guitars.
Recording the Music
The songs on Beatles Baby! were recorded using different instruments. These instruments are often very different from the ones The Beatles used. However, Caspar Babypants wanted his album to sound a bit like the original Beatles songs. He copied some of their recording tricks. For example, he used "hard-panning" stereo mixes. This means sounds are placed strongly on either the left or right side in your headphones.
He also added comments between songs, just like The Beatles sometimes did. On the song "The End", he even used three guitars for the solo. This was another way to honor the original band. All the songs on Beatles Baby! were mixed carefully. This makes sure they sound just as loud and clear as every other Caspar Babypants song.
Album Artwork
The cool pictures and design for the album cover were created by Kate Endle. She is an artist from Seattle.
