Here goes steve found one of the new recordings for you. I just have a problem with the snappy modern drum kit they have used on the tracks.. The Synthesizer is an issue with me too but i suppose it aint 1971 anymore

Do you know I found that quite unsettling and just wrong in so many ways... Appreciate the post though.

Making amends, now playing the real NE4 thing... :D

yeah to a point, but I go see the Strawbs every time they're in Town (sometimes the acoustic, sometimes the Electric Band) I don't expect them to sound the same ( but they come real close with the electric band).

I don't think I'd be buying a rework / retake of Grave New World tho..

And I've said it before its about time their back catalogue was given the 180g treatment. Bet they wouldn't do a reish of the Grave New World Cover tho. That must have cost a few bob first time around.

I'll also admit to leaving before the end of Dr Feelgood and Colin Bluntstone in recent months but I was pleased that I gave them a go … if that makes sense. :D

Its was all about the sound of the time & the old instruments they used etc. Recreating the sound in modern times is utterly different atmosphere. Surely you can hear that in those new Ton Ton recordings..

Can you imagine how shit a re-issue of Grave New World Sleeve artwork/packet construction would be :lol:

Currently testing new dac with a few all time favs. Just finished The The - Mind Bomb what an amazing album. Up next probably my all time fav album deff in top 3 Tears for Fears - Sowing the seeds of love 16 bit version off Tidal.

I have vinyl copies of Soul Mining, Infected and Mind Bomb, and while I still play the first two, I didn't really get on with Mind Bomb. Maybe it's time for a revisit. Sowing The Seeds another favourite, great production :)
