I'm beginning to not like remasters at all. The more I listen to them, the more sterile they sound compared to the originals (even if there is some additional clarity). So I'm not sure why one would need to remaster something at all, let alone every 20 years.

Lately I've been liking the symphonies of Franz Schmidt. Hi, S-a. Which one would you recommend I start with? Always up for a new (to me) symphonist! Well, I've only listened to them a couple times or so each, plus he only wrote I think 4 or 5. They're pretty similar so you might as well start off with #1 and go in sequence. The main appeal I had of them was that they seemed to be nice symphonies to listen to as you're driving through the countryside looking at the scenery. That sort of ambiance. |

^ Yes!! I'm going to bump this thread because I've been listening to their Greatest Hits album a lot the last week. In addition to the song above, a song I didn't pay much attention to the first time I listened through the album is "Like Always." I'm not sure if I'd ever heard the song before I bought this album, but I have no idea why it wasn't a bit hit. It (and Everything That Touches You) are just breathtakingly brilliant. Brian Wilson caliber, I'd say. Maybe even better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QI2pDpEZCzQ^ The entire middle part - the section starting with "Girl ..." - is simply brilliant (it's like a chorus, and a double bridge, and the chorus repeated, or something like that). |
