| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Patrick-Dylan allegedly is working on his autobiography although the release date gets ever further away-wether this is another part of his own smoke screen who can say?I agree largely that Dylan has added to his own myth however that's been large... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Cp you've got me a bit confused.You are listening to CD right?Your Arcam doesn't do SACD does it?To clarify the SACD part of the disc is on a different layer you are listening to the CD layer I think.You need a dedicated SACD player to hear the SA... | |
| What do you think of the new Linn Unidisk? The very short demo I heard would indicate Tom is correct with his analysis.I wasn't blown away with either SACD or CD replay-I never heard DVDA at the time | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever A quick word on the packaging-pretty good.All the CD's come in a digi-pack,they recreate the original vinyl packaging-so where sleeeve notes were more extensive (usually the earlier ones)there are little booklets.Some of the other discs are more b... | |
| Classic Rock Fans? Onhwy61-UK publishers Future Publishing have a monthly magazine called Classic Rock.It features the era and bands you favour,is reasonably well written and covers a decent range of music.Surely must be traceable in the States-need further info e-m... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Audiohorn only CD so far, my system's SACD replay doesn't stand up to my CD replay-see my system for details.Dekay-that's a bootleg definitely-sounds like it's from Italy and they are notorious amongst some other European countries for making boot... | |

| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Dekay I need to listen again to NS but perhaps the "crack" is more down to Dylan struggling to maintain his tone,maybe not.I wouldn't want to turn Dylan into a saint I think it's very probable he has made major mistakes along the way but I agree h... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Nrchy of course you are right Dylan has most of his career been playing a game with the press.From the early days where he denied his background until now he has given them the run around.It's been misleading at times other times it's been hilario... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Audiotomb the good news is that the CD remastering is excellent.Therefore you'll hear the difference anyway without SACD. | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Dekay I appreciate your comments and the other kind words so far.Everything I've written up to this point has been off the top of my head-I've (sadly)read more books about Dylan than I care to remember (probably about 40).Now I'm checking the exac... | |
| Dylan - The Greatest Remasters Ever Dekay-the motorcycle accident happened shortly after his 66 World Tour.He was injured although the details are sketchy but it's widely accepted his injuries were minor and to his back and neck.It's covered in most Dylan biographies.The theory does... | |
| Which artists do you just NOW get? When I was about 16 (1980) some of my neighbours gave me some music to listen to.Amongst the various records (including some I liked like Kraftwerk)was Closer by Joy Division.I just didn't get it,it washed over me despite trying to like it,I was p... | |
| Worst remote nomination... I have to say for the money the remote on my Ayre CX-7 is poor.It's a bit glitchy too due I think to the small buttons.Thankfully I remove this problem by using a Marantz Universal remote. | |
| Bowie 24 bit remasters.... Yes but mostly a marginal step up rather than a massive one. |
