Thats a hard song to sing along with.

Pet Sounds.  It's a cool ocean wave that helps wash away stress at work.  I'm a high school English teacher...while I love my job and my students, the work does get overwhelming - physically, mentally, emotionally.  PS always, always, always helps.

Pet Sounds. Stereo.


 

I've been getting into the 40th anniversary stereo mix again since getting some incredible beyerdynamic earphones recently as a birthday present. They are crazily expensive for earphones but it's worth it as they really bring the 2006 mix to life. It always sounded too trebly to me before, so I'd convinced myself that the Hoffman mono mix was the only one I could listen to.

Is there a consensus on a definintive stereo mix for PS? I'm unsure of the differences between the different releases. Does the new remaster trump the 40th anniversary one?

I hear ya. During a particularly stressful episode a few years back I found Pet Sounds incredibly comforting. It really surprised me as I was always skeptical of people who gushed about its soothing properties. I guess it makes sense as he was writing the music to sooth himself in many ways.

Haven't heard the new remaster but the MoFi SACD (released last year I think?) is pretty sweet.

Thanks. Don't you need special equipment to make that one worthwhile though, or will the differences be apparent on standard equipment?

Even the redbook layer (standard cd) sounds better than any of the previous issues I've heard.

How does it sound better - better clarity or what exactly? Thanks for the info.

Beth Orton - I Wasn't Born To Follow


Oh, what Beach Boys am I listening to? I'm not. But I am looking at pictures of John Stamos.



With an erection.



Not him, me.



Well, not anymore.


Still looking at pics of him, just without my erection.


I need tissue.

[Aegir]

yep.
