Another version of Stand By Me -- great tech and even better musicians

Below is a link to one of the best pieces of sound engineering work I think I have ever seen and heard. It is a composite of audio/video of song whereby additional tracks, forming the entire original song, were laid in by different amateur singers and musicians from different places around the world. The finished product is tremendous!

The song itself is that classic standard "Stand By Me" originally released in 1955 by The Staple Singers and released again in 1961 by the Drifters. This composite version is a real toe tapper.

This is not some wacky site with a screaming video. Bear with it for a few seconds to really get into the song.

So turn up the speaker volume and http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_...
