Quotebitusa2012 Quotedownagain QuoteBig Al Hackney Diamonds sounds absolutely fine on Spotify and through a decent pair of headphones. Fine is in the ears of the beholder. I can tolerate the Spotify version of HD on my small google speaker but it drives me insane through my hi-fi system or decent headphones. Here are the dynamic range results for the various formats (copied from chat GPT):

Quoteironbelly Quotegeorgemcdonnell314 I am not interested in buying cheap version. Most of the CD's I have been purchased in the 1980's so I am sure they are worn out. I still have a Japanese vinyl version I listen to. It has a poster inside that I have never seen elsewhere. So, to contradict you I will purchase the new release with the additional songs as a replacement.

Quotebv It is not a rumour - it is a fact. The Rolling Stones i.e. Mick, Keith and Ronnie, pluss several of their support musicians, have been at the Metropolis Studio London UK all through May and more i.e. 5-6 weeks working on the songs for their next studio album, also more studio works in the past, after the 2024 tour finished. Great days for all Stones fans! For those who do not like thei

Quotemosthigh "Livestream will be delayed 2 hours" In case Ozzy falls flat on his face on stage or sucks real bad, they'll have time to edit that out and replace it with AI. Wow. Missed that when I read that originally. It's actually quite funny. How long can a Livestream be delayed and still "live"? 2 hours? 2 years? 2 decades?

QuoteRollingFreak QuoteMKjan I think JF is just sticking it to his former CCR mates. In fairness, the songs are largely just John Fogerty solo recordings anyway. I appreciate the band that CCR is, and he didn't have nearly the consistency without them so clearly they brought something to the music. But he wrote, sang and played lead guitar on those songs. He was always a one man band, no o

Quotetreaclefingers QuoteStonesfan2146 I also do still listen to Hackney Diamonds a lot. And many songs have even grown for me from first not liking them to then having them in my car driving playlist, for example Get Close. The saxophone solo gives me 1981 tour vibes, making me think they could have played this in the stadium on that great evening in the lets spend the night together concert mov

Back to the album, anyone listen to the bluray and have an opinion? I seriously wondered if my system was messed up, seems to be severely lacking in the low end. The separation of channels is great but seems they forgot to include the rhythm section.
Forum: Tell Me

Love CCR and Fogerty but this seems unnecessary, though if he wants to do it go for it. I listened to some clips, they're a close representation of the original. Voice still sounds good though with a very slight twang. Again, seems rather pointless but it's his time and money, if he wants to do it just for himself, have at it. I remember Zappa writing symphonies and recording t

Does anyone but me find the Hackney Blu-ray sound quality completely underwhelming? It's certainly no GHS as far as sound quality goes imo. It does surround you with sound but sounds to me to be missing a lot in the low frequency range.
