ROB SEZ: I "blame" this post on the new-old single from this group that I bought on Record Store Day in 2017. Something about the music of the band always brings me back, in spite of my ambivalence. After reading Johnny Marr's bio, I realized the appeal for me is 90% JM's personality/talent/guitar playing, 5% the loony, over-the-top singer, and 5% inexplicable mystery. These two ROIO sets are nothing new to collectors. But in case someone out there hasn't heard them (especially in these superior versions), the post will not be in vain. Check out Drew's amazing mastering job on the Troy Tate recordings — the beautiful bass tones will blow you away.
MEGA THANKS to Steve, Drew, CrazyCol and everyone else
who brought this music to the masses.

thanks!
ReplyDeleteI will be interested in hearing this superior audio version. The one I had (from back in my first days of grabbing stuff from non-torrent sites) was fairly muddy, but more than good enough for one who came of age with questionable vinyl bootlegs.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Cheers, Bruce. This version of Pablo Cuckoo is listenable, but to my ears, the Troy Tate Sessions in this improved version could be commercially released. Drew's remastering is a revelation.
DeleteThis is mad Dope yo! Thank you for this
