    I'd have to agree.

    Always thought it was an odd story

    Judging from the current Google image of the crossing and old pictures (incl. the album cover) I agree the crossing if it did move it was only by a few feet. Have a look also at the tops of the building on the rhs.

    There is a permanent webcam of the crossing.

    Funny watching some people cross over several times. Seems like the crossing has become a religious site.

    Are the white gateposts actually the entrance to the studios?

    Seems so. The studios have two entrances - common for such houses.

    see:

    Next door is the bookshop.

    Amazing amount of grafitti on the walls. The council has to paint over it every few months.

    Not a new question by any means.

    I certainly don't mean to deny the value of fresh perspective. But I'm not sure when this sort of thing (meaning remixing) reaches the point where it's not authentic any more.

    It's authentic In that the band is still responsible for every sound you hear.

    I like the remixes very much. Shame about the prices.

    I bought the deluxe 3 lp version. Sonically it's spot on. I've only listened to it through my valve system, I suspect it's going to be something very good indeed with the 1210 and ATC's

    its very good, cd wise on cans anyway, if maybe a tad overly pushed sonically. a couple of db too high imo.
