Why is it that Ian Anderson, after doing a very commendable job with remastering the first 3 Jethro Tull albums, didn't carry on with "Aqualung"? I personally find the 2002 remaster of "Stand Up" to really work for me, even better than the original LP pressing. But "Aqualung"? Give me strength! Any version I've heard so far is practically unlistenable. Shame, because it's a great album. Please Ian, go back to the vaults and fetch Aqualung master tapes and remaster them the way you did with "This Was" and "Stand UP" (I for some reason don't care that much for "Benefit"). -- magiccarpetride ------------------------------------------------------------------------ magiccarpetride's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37863 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85882 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
