*remastered*
Well finding the answer to my own question, they are claming to be remastering from original tapes.
I’m interested in the Move CDs, but it being on Cherry Red dampens that somewhat with their terrible reputation for poor sourcing. Any information on what they used for the CDs?
I actually saw that Duran Duran disc on Record Store Day and wondered what it was! I guess the store snuck it out early.
I didn’t realize Travis were still active. Haven’t tuned into them in a while, but loved their first few (though I’m going to venture a guess that this is maybe more of the same?).
I saw a recent photo of Fran Healy; he’s now turned into an aging fisherman with a huge beard!
As has Michael Stipe I saw recently. I am out of touch with fashion, so is looking like a fisherman / tramp the new cool?
