Astral Weeks 180g Remastered
Posted by: Leo..... on 08 January 2009
I finally got my copy today and I highly recommend it. After only having flimsy copies before to hold this beautiful ( heavy!! ) record was thrill. Its perfectly packaged ( I think with the same label as the original?? ) with a good quality sleeve.
My two cents regarding the remaster are just that I was struggling to leave the house for work this morning for a record I have heard thousands of times. I have to leave by the time we got to 'sweet thing' but the sheer clarity of the record just blew my mind. Roll on 5:30 for side two!!!!!!

The standard CD release of this sounds good to me, so no need they get your hands dirty. 
(Also needed to knock the PF threads off the top!

)I bought an old copy at a second hand record shop a few months ago. Not really even a fan of Van the Man and I was astounded by it's beauty especially by side 2 actually: tracks 2,3 & 4. Every time I browsed through my vinyl looking for some entertainment for weeks I always ended up sticking Astral Weeks on... Would fancy a listen to it on 180g
