That's a 'big fun' cd there, Andy!
The first RMAF, Doc Bottlehead was demoing it on his new SEX amp and headphones.  Had to have it! It even gets my 88 year old ma tapping her toes.

As for me right now....



Just curious...what's the best version of this to get?  I had the original CD release and the first US remaster back in the 80s, and really didn't like the way the remaster was done.  There have been a few releases since then and I'm curious to know which sounds best...

Hey Phil!
I have to admit, although the version I've been listening to is from '96 remaster I believe, I'm not all that impressed with it myself, and remember thinking that on the day I brought it home.  Not even close to the dynamics of my old vinyl the ex left with.  Even that vinyl recorded on 8-track was better.
 :o  (in my mind's ears..)
I was ripping mine for my Squeezebox and had to stop and listen again.  Hoping coming thru the SB will be better than my cd/dac combo.
If you find a GOOD remaster, puh-lease, let me know! Its a grand old favorite I liked better than Tommy.

Regards,
DeadFish

For these old recordings, it's better to just get the original UK vinyl pressing, which suggests that you need a turntable, Phil ;).

(Hotel Costes Vol 2)  I own Vol's 1-6 (there are 8 total).  Vol 2 & 3 are probably my favorites.

    I "tuned" my Squeezebox into some strange German 'darkwave' station last week and a song from these guys caught my ear amidst all the otherwise boring electronic stuff.  It was just piano and drums.  Their video showing a slamming cover of "War Pigs" totally sold me.  Great album, cool videos..and check this out, actual dynamics! :bounce:

    That is a really cool texture on the downward spiral cover.
