Rock albums that sound good on your system?


Often, you put in a rock album into your S$10,000 system and the music, though enjoyable, just sounds harsh, grating, boomy and forward. Aside from several of my Pink Floyd albums, the rest of my rock CDs just sound bad. Are there any good rock recordings out there?

For Rlwainwright, try Camel's "The Gods of Light, (Live 73-75) It's got the live version of Snow Goose and was bootlegged directly from the soundboard. It beats the first Snow goose silly. Other Good Albums:
Days of the New (1 & 2, 3 is more compressed)
Frank Zappa: You Can't Do that on Stage Anymore, Vol 2
Steve Winwood's Boxed Set (Mostly Traffic music)
Blind Faith's 2 disc remastered set released last year
Klaatu's first 2 albums released on 1 cd
Emerson, Lake & Palmer: Brain Salad surgery (remastered)
Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms
Rush: 2112 and Chronicles

Records to stay away from
Any Jefferson Airplane and Starship unless remastered
Heart: Dreamboat Annie (way too bright)
