    Crowded House. Scrape off all the '80s glaze and silly effects.

    For surround these a few I would like. Some of these need no new stereo mix. So I am going surround only.

    Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland or Axis
    Bob Dylan - Infidels
    Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti
    Paul Weller - Wild Wood

    I don't like, what Andy Jackson did. Too much to the surround-speakers. 5.1

    Pink Floyd - Meddle 5.1
    Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland 5.1
    Porcupine Tree - The Sky Moves Sideways 5.1
    Porcupine Tree - Voyage 34 5.1
    Porcupine Tree - Up The Downstair 5.1

    Just in case anyone's concerned the remixes will dry up with SW focussing on his own new album with promotion & touring, I've heard the phrase "stockpile" used on more than one occasion.

    I said it before and I'll say it again. He's gotta do at least one Rush album, and that album is Hemispheres :)

    Hear hear! But what about the tapes? Afaik Richard Chycki wanted to remix all their classic albums but multi's were either missing or unusable. I'll see if I can find a link to that info.

    "Based on the strong feedback from the Moving Pictures 5.1 remix, Universal Records had asked me to remix Fly By Night, A Farewell To Kings and Signals in surround to be included in their "Sector" series of box set releases currently underway. Like Moving Pictures, all the multitrack masters I worked with were transferred from the original analog tapes at 96 kHz/24 bit resolution and this quality was maintained right down to the finished master. Listeners are in for a revelation of new detail for these releases."
    - Richard Chycki, richardchycki.com, October 15, 2011

    "There was quite a lot missing. We have full albums missing. The master tapes for Permanent Waves, I just don't think we have the masters for that record. That is typical of those days. Your recordings would stay at the studio where you last worked. You'd get home and the master tapes would go to be mastered and then the record was released and they would keep your masters as it was safer that way. When we did Permanent Waves, Trident kept the masters but they went bankrupt and everything disappeared so we don't have the multi-track masters for that one. The same thing with the first record. There are takes missing. The original "Working Man" that's on the album is missing but we have a second version that we did that's slightly different and had a different solo with a wah-wah pedal and that's the version that exists now but that's not been a released version. There's lots of stuff missing, there's parts of 2112 missing. That's the problem we have, some tapes have gone missing, some had degraded. Baking the tapes doesn't necessarily fix them. What it does is it allows you to play the tapes through one time, if you're lucky, so you have to make sure you get it and if you get something that sticks then you're out of luck."

    I despise the Trident drum sound of the early Queen albums, the trouble is that they mostly sound like that as they were bounced and overdubbed onto goodness knows how many times. Essentially, they'll probably never been to make anything better out of those drums, even from the multitracks... :-(

    If I had to pick one, I'd like to see what he would do with Thunderclap Newman's Hollywood Dream.

    What I'd love to witness is The best of (Three Dog Night), and also (The best of April Wine) and topped off with ( The Best of Lighthouse) all in 5.1 that would be amazing....

    Yeah, the drums are brutal. The first album especially is super brickwalled...I can overlook the compression on the 2nd album because of how great it is, but I really wish they had had a better producer/mixer.

    Joe's Garage - Zappa. This is a title that SW actually singled out as one he would like to remix in surround. If only Gail would ask him!
