| The new re-mix of Sgt. Pepper's Thanks for that info--I couldn't find that on Amazon earlier, but now I see it at Barnes and Noble. That's entirely reasonable. | |
| The new re-mix of Sgt. Pepper's Unfortunately, a box set. I'd be all over a standalone disc. | |
| Sgt.Pepper special on PBS I thought the program was mostly good--I question whether, at this point, they were still mixing 3 tracks down to 1 (I’d like to see an example of that on any song from the LP), but there were a lot of good new factoids and the rest seemed right o... | |
| Sgt.Pepper special on PBS What makes the omission more puzzling is that Pet Sounds/Beach Boys were bigger in England than in the US, rivaling the Beatles in the UK at the time. How could he not have known about this connection? | |
| Autographed Albums Jimmy Carl Black: Brown, Black and Blue LP (might also be signed by Arthur Brown, I can't remember for sure) | |
| Well, it was 50 years ago today..... tablejockey, there's a short thread in the Music section here already with a few comments from folks who have the new stereo mix. Also, you can go on Amazon and listen to 30-second samples of each tune (including the tunes on the other discs with... | |
| The new re-mix of Sgt. Pepper's @reubent, I am also a huge fan of the re-mixed Yellow Sub. I believe that one is the work of Sir George (not sure, will have to check) and it breathes new life into those tunes. The piano intro on Hey Bulldog jumps out of the speakers like never... | |
| The new re-mix of Sgt. Pepper's I was pretty disappointed when the fairly recent re-masters did not include any re-mixes (I was impressed with the re-mix of the Yellow Submarine soundtrack). I figured they'd pull something like this. Giles Martin says a White Album 50th anniv... | |
| Favorite version of Grateful Dead's Aiko Aiko? I love the Dr. John version on Gumbo, which is an early 70's LP in celebration of other NOLA artists of the 50's and 60's. | |
| For older guys They weren't suggesting that he was a lazy bum--they were taking his laid-back personality to the extreme. It's farcical, not to be taken literally. | |
| Tracks worth for a 1 Million system Modern guitar recordings are compressed to death. Try the old Voxbox of Manuel Barrueco--it's called something like 300 (400?) years of Guitar. This recording of his Ruck actually sounds like a guitar, and the playing is fantastic. Check out th... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Brian Wilson, Pet Sounds tour, May 13 at Moody Theater, Austin. His voice is far from what it was, but the band was very good and it was a great evening with a couple of magical moments. | |
| For older guys It also took me a lot of years to appreciate Perry (and Dino). On a recent (mostly country/cowboy) gig, out of nowhere the singer produced a medley of Hot Diggity Dog Diggity and That's Amore. It was a lot of fun. I also recall being at a rehea... | |
| List of artists that have never lost quality throughout entire career I misspoke, sorry to all: the release to which I referred was not issued under the Los Lobos name, but rather as the Latin Playboys (on the Slash label). I found it harsh and industrial to my ear. Perhaps I should give it another listen. Anywa... | |
| List of artists that have never lost quality throughout entire career Los Lobos--I've never heard anything sub-par from them. They did one album in a style I didn't care for, but I can't say it was bad--just not my cup of tea. |
