New remastering of Steely Dan's Katy Lied review by Fremer


I don't have a turntable, but in this case, the remastered material is streamable. I did a bit of listening last night and it sounds a bit better, but it’s still far short of Aja, so there’s a let-down effect. “It sounds better” is not the sonic experience of “Wow, this is amazing.” 

Still, better is better, and I'll settle for better.

There was always something about how NOT perfect Katy Lied quality was that I for some reason always liked.  A huge chunk of that is absolutely contextual though: like, in the basement with step dad while working on the wood stove, or building cabinets and he played a tape from the album  he played on his old two-body Sony tape player boom box he made from the record....so LO FIDELITY was as much a part of the love as the music itself, which obviously was too.  Steely Dan was a big part of my growing up in NE PA/NYC.  Katy for some reason was always my favorite.
