Thank you guys.
It’s interesting to me that the recent videos are making a much bigger impact than the older ones did.

Here’s a graph from David Yeargin’s data of total Channel Views. I wanted to answer the question:
How many extra views does the MLT channel get when a video is posted?
For that I took day 0 as the posting date of each video, and then took the increase of views compared to a week earlier. So the numbers on the vertical axis is the extra views compared to a week prior. The If You Raise Your Head video was released on a Monday, so I take that day’s views and subtract the number of views of the prior Monday. For day 1, I take the Tuesday views and subtract the previous Tuesday’s numbers and so on. Day 8 would be subtracting from the release date. The average weekly views over the last 2 years seems to be about 150K.
So the numbers are the total channel views increase for each day over a week prior, or weekly increase on a rolling basis.
In other words, this gives us an idea of how the videos perform compared to each other.

Tribute to Ray Charles… Billy Preston, BB King and … Bruce Willis??

By the time you read this, Ask My Why, will have 200K views. 👏👏

Is this during the recording/rehearsing of Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite! ? Definitively, Sgt. Pepper time.

That was a great suggestion David, so I moved the start date to a week prior to the release, so release date is now the in the middle of the graph.

That’s very interesting, I’d love to get the data in an Excel sheet, I’d love to do different graphs. With the data.

Most likely, yes. Jimmy Greenspoon was a great Hammond player. There might be a Wurlitzer in there too.
-
Wow, that’s quite something. What a performance for a 11 year old!
According to Ringo, Billy was the greatest Hammond organ player.

I remember being a kid in the 70’s and my uncle had the record. I thought the real zipper was cool. Wild Horses was and still is my favorite Stones song.

Over the past half hour it’s being doing 2.3 vpm

Interesting… when I wrote that post, I had checked after a couple of numbers updates on the video, and it was adding about 5 views a minute, so I estimated (all remaining equal) that it would hit 200K by about 5:30 am NY time. Did it not make it until just before 2 pm?
It was less than 800 views away then, now it’s at 200,431 (7pm) which means it did about 1200 views in over 16 hours or about 1.25 views per minute, a huge drop (75%) from 5 vpm.
This is assuming that it hit 200K just before 2pm. Then adding 430 views in the last 5 hours, gives us an very similar average of 1.4 vpm 🤔 I would never suggest YouTube could possibly be tinkering with the numbers? Is 2:30 am (EST) the peak time for MLT viewership? 🤐

Clapton (signature sourpuss expression) is playing a telecaster with a strat neck (from his brownie strat). I believe there was a Custom Shop version of it.
