Feelin' nearly faded as my jeans
What can you hear guys ?
It's ages since I heard it - I lost my SACD surround set-up.
What can you hear guys ?
How much was it initially on Amazon ?
I was charged £19.99 when I have got feeling that it was less in the preorder
It felt quite cheap for a modern record, I think £17.99, but I can’t remember. I just hope the pressing is decent, the recent Animals remix was apparently awful. Mike from The In Groove said he was returning about 40% of those!
Because of the pressing quality or the re- mix quality Tony?
Pressing. Vast numbers apparently arriving with very obvious pressing faults, high noise etc.
PS I heard a couple of tracks on YouTube and the remix really isn’t for me. I don’t like messing with history anyway, but this lost what I liked at the time - I bought it new, though no longer have a copy (I’d actually like one, but the mint 1st press I’d want are rather spendy now). Animals is what it is. The dark murky sound is part of the backdrop both of the politics it was attacking and the darker alienated punk/new-wave aesthetic of the time Floyd found themselves cut adrift in. The remix pretties it up and makes it sound like normal dad-rock. It takes away any edge it may once have had.
Nice quiet and clean pressing although both sides are cut to within around 8mm of the label. Not a surprise at 55 mins long, nearly 32 of which is side two.
