Remastering fan-project #1 - Wired to the Moon
Posted: 30 May 2014, 23:20
Hi all,
I've given up waiting for Chris' early albums to get the remastering/reissue treatment, so thought I'd go through the albums and give it a go myself, also adding the b-sides from each era.
I started with 'Wired to the Moon', because I love it, and it's the 30th anniversary this year. Basically just beefed the sound up and closed a few (what I thought were) 'lengthy' gaps between tracks + a few minor cross-fades. Such a classic album.
How do people feel about me sharing these results in a lossless FLAC format here on the forum? Of course, we all own the original material, I just thought it would be a fun thing to do and enjoy. I might do Water Sign next...
