Anyone has any stories to share regarding first impressions of the re-imagined/remixed Sgt. Pepper's?
I grew up with that record, so I have every little detail etched into my memory. Many people are raving how now they can hear more details, but after listening to the new remix, I remain confused -- I haven't really heard much new details. The thing that mostly makes this remix different is the panning. Also, they seem to have applied a bit of sugarcoating in the mastering stage, to make it more appealing to the bulk of the younger crowd.
Mind you, I heard it only on CD; some claim that LP is much less limited/compressed, but I haven't heard the LP yet.
