Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
cant really comment on the new mix in particular, but the album itself is somehow always a revelation for me even though ive known it for most of my life. always had a major soft spot for "dont pass me by"
i think id put abbey road and revovler above it if i felt like ranking the beatles, but really why would i

Also can they really improve the white album? IOW isn't it un-improveable?Shakespeare wrote:

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
Depends on your definition of "improve." Apparently the original mix shortchanged the sonics in deference to late-'60s stereos and car radios and teenagers' transistors and such, while the new mix is closer to the original masters: more presence, more spacious, more lifelike, and those other audiophile terms.Clams wrote:Also can they really improve the white album?

I haven't heard it, but if you ask me, no, the only improvement they're making is giving retailers a chance to make an extra hundred bucks this holiday season.

just arrived from Australia. worth the effort to order & the cost was low with the good exchange rate. watched the main concert last night. unreal good! think Patterson would like this one!

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
probably accurate, but i picked up the new three disc version for the esher demos and to replace my original cd release, so it was worth $20. the deluxe, massive version was an easy pass thoughscotto wrote:Depends on your definition of "improve."

havent gotten around to the demos yet but rediscovering the album has been enough payoff already

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
Is there a DTS 5.1 mix included? I thought that I read that there was. That is my primary inspiration for picking this up (haven’t bought it yet)Shakespeare wrote:probably accurate, but i picked up the new three disc version for the esher demos and to replace my original cd release, so it was worth $20. the deluxe, massive version was an easy pass thoughscotto wrote:Depends on your definition of "improve."

Forgot about the demos. I'm not pooh-poohing reissue packages--rediscovering old favorites can be well worth it.Shakespeare wrote:probably accurate, but i picked up the new three disc version for the esher demos and to replace my original cd release, so it was worth $20. the deluxe, massive version was an easy pass though

sfa at the bbc
only a few tracks in but i am so glad this exists. im finding myself more and more interested in having live recorded alternatives to most of my favorite bands, and this stuff sounds brilliant
such a treat to get comprehensive bbc sets from both sfa and rem in the same year
