Hello,I've noticed a lot of classic CD's I'd like to buy have the heading "original recording remastered" at Amazon. I also read in this forum that certain remastered CD's have lost the life of the original recording (I think Dark Side Of The Moon was...

Not having listened to much classical lately, I pulled out Beethoven's symph no. 3, performed by Sir Georg Solti conducting the CSO on the London cd label.What a powerful performance!The sound quality on this cd is excellent; very much like the real...

Despite my previously stated reservations about how Ms. Cole’s newest CD is being marketed, I decided to buy the new disc to hear if she has developed on the promise of her debut disc. I am glad to report that she has. (And despite my...

Does anybody know of a Japanese online shop that is in english? I am after Shopping Carts Crashing, by Anti Pop Consortium, which is a Japan only release. The cheapest that I've found it for is $23 + $4.50. I see Nippon Crown have an online shop, but...

A while back I wrote about a prospective series of releases on Naxos featuring Georg Tintner conducting music other than Bruckner. Well, the first disc in the series has finally hit US shores, so I figured I’d buy it. The first volume is devoted...

So who died too young when there was more to give..?I would say Hendrix of course, who would now definitely be playing serious blues/jazz as he was going that way anyway. (actually – I reckon he didn’t die and is now acting under the name...

OK chaps - I presume that no women (they are quite sensible creatures who use their time constructively) inhabit this forum - here's a new one for you.We all know those dullard critics' lists of the Top 100 Best Albums Of All Time Ever. We all know...

The new Dandy Warhols CD is worth a listen. Good tunes and well recorded.A tad different from the current chart fodder on offer.file:/root/Animations/smart_donkey_chalkboard_md_wht_9311.gif

I'd definitly recommend this. There's a second DVD with some wonderful videos of tracks from their 2 albums. I usually hate pop videos, but these are very moving.It's called 'untitled' of course:-)RegardsStephen

The Blue NilePulled out this gem from 1983 today and luxuriated in the wonderfully emotive voice of Paul Buchanan.It's all here - driving rhythms, wonderful soaring melodies and sexual imagery aplenty.I know that those nice people at 'The Scottish...

I just had to start this sister thread! My two nominations would be Nick Lowe and Johnny Hodges. I feel that Nick Lowe doesn't get anything like the same level of adoration/respect as lesser talents such as Elvis Costello. I think Lowe is one of the...

Doubt if many would be interested anyhow, but for those Siouxsie & the Banshees fans thinking that the new live CD might be a repeat of 1983's excellent 'Nocturne' - think again. It really, really sucks. Hard to tell whether bad playing or bad engineering are to blame...

I know this subject has come up often but all the software mentioned only seems to add albums on CD. Cataloguing LPs or whatever seems to be ignored. I brought CD Trustee about a year ago as they said they would be producing a version that would...

All this talk of Subs and things in the Hi-Fi Corner reminded me of the Infrasonic - experiments with music, video and extreme bass sound offering due on in London quite soon. While browsing the subject of deep, deep sounding sounds I found this...
