Jackson Browne CD's

One of my all time favorite albums ever is Jackson Browne's "For Everyman". I literally wore out my LP back in the day. But now the CD version's overall sound quality and fidelity is down right awful. Horrible sound. Does anyone know or may have heard if this CD will be digitally remastered in 24 bitstream or perhaps in HDCD? I don't have an SACD capable player so that won't work. I am unable to find out any info on the net. Jackson's two more recent CD's (I'm Alive and Naked Ride Home) sound fantastic. No comparison. Any info would be appreciated. I know it's a long shot.

This is a great thread. I'm glad I discovered it. I too would be very interested to hear people's experience with the sound of new re-mastered versions of Everyman and Late. I love them both, but hate the sound.

Jdoris,

As with any CD, one can program individual tracks, i.e., change the order, leave some out,etc. The intros are individually numbered along with the songs. Just program your CD player to play only the numbers that are songs. If you don't know how to program tracks with your CD player, read the owner's manual. Of course, there's a slight - but unlikely - chance that you have a player that doesn't allow programming. If that truly is the case, I'd highly recommend that you get one.

Hope this helps. By the way, TO EVERYONE (or Everyman : ) - Jackson is beginning a tour with his band next month. He also has a new CD (Time the Conqueror) coming out shortly. I saw him solo in April, and can't wait to see him again so soon. It's been a while since I've seen him with his band. IMHO, it's an understatement to say that he's one of the most underrated songwriter/singers around (maybe even ever).
