QuoteGerardHennessy Quotepeoplewitheyes Could someone explain why anyone would want to buy so many editions of the same album? I don't mean with this live cd, but people buying up to a dozen versions of the same original HD album. It's like a mania or an obsession and I just can't understand it.

Quote24FPS I have no problem with Steve Jordan's drumming, especially on Hackney Diamonds. The drums kind of stood out as not so great on ABB, probably due to the way they were recorded, not the way Charlie sounded live. On Hackney is the best rhythm section since Steel Wheels. Even Andrew Watt's bass playing is better than anything they've had on record in a long time. I think Ste

QuoteDoxa Quotepaulspendel Artists in their 'late days' tend to minimalise their sound. Look at Cash, look at Solomon Burke. An intimate, warm sound with a basic band.

QuoteSomeGuy One aspect that struck me with both Angry and Sweet Sounds is, that Jagger sounds pretty strong. The way he sounds on Tattoo You comes to mind immediately. "Inspiration" and "confidence" are the magic words here. For musicians, these usually derive from the feeling that the material you're recording is great. Bodes well for the album as a whole!
