Living in the material world...

I listened to it last night. There's no speed variation that makes it sound warped. Maybe your friend got a bad copy or his TT is not right. The first one I bought had such an extreme angle on the leading edge that it would throw the needle into the first song, my second copy plays great.


Has anyone heard for sure that this will be remastered? LITMW, Dark Horse, and Extra Texture were all on the Apple label not the Dark Horse label.

 

The US copy is mastered by Doug Sax of Mastering Lab. "TML" is on the run-out groove & on the credits. I thought it was pretty good sounding till I got a UK copy. Don't know why it should be so as it was also mastered by TML but it does - more natural acoustic guitars, better bass etc.

 

My UK CD was issued in 1991 , was no-noise being applied that far back ?

Supposedly, BTW, the master tape for "Deep Blue" has disappeared, thus it not being a candidate thus far for reissuing. A lovely George tune, I also wore out a copy of this 45, but since have been able to purchase another.

Yes sir. Even further back than that. In 1988 the Lennon CD reissues of Mind Games, Walls & Bridges, Rock & Roll and Shaved Fish were all no-noised.

 

David Bowie covers "Try Some Buy Some" on his new Cd coming out next week. It's a nice, respectful version that's pretty faithful to the original arrangement but I think I actually prefer Bowie's world-weary vocal to George's. The album itself is great...that's 3 fab records in a row for the Thin White Senior I mean Duke.

 

Where did you hear this?
