Thomas Andersson Group: Members Posts: 53 Joined: Feb. 2001 Posted: May 09 2001, 12:28 I haven't got all of mikes albums yet, which really is a shame. The ones that are on top of my priority list right now are (in no particular order): - Crises - Incantations - Hergest Ridge - QE2 - Platinum The problem is, the place I'm usually ordering CDs from both has the original CD versions and the new remastered ones (in most cases at least). The remastered is a bit more expansive, and well, what is you opinion on the enhanched versions? It's an improvment? I've heard some people prefer the original editions. Some opinions would be welcome. Back to top

Unregistered Posted: May 21 2001, 05:57 i got a copy of the hergest ridge remaster, and, well, in my opinion it lacks a lot of the feeling from the original LP.. Back to top

Korgscrew Group: Super Admins Posts: 3511 Joined: Dec. 1999 Posted: May 21 2001, 13:48 Yeah, they're different from the original LP mix, but I have LPs of the Boxed remix as well, and I must say that the remaster has a much cleaner and more modern sound. It's very nice though, but I know exactly what peo12 means, as the original rounded edges of the sound of the LP have been replaced by something a bit more crisp. That's really what you get by going to something digital though, at the moment at least... Back to top

Unregistered Posted: May 31 2001, 03:05 yeah, but i do prefer the original cd to the remastered one. Back to top
