Yes going down to Ivor's to borrow some super cables he was trying to shift sent me over the edge. I reckon Anne would like to relive that day and prevent me hearing his wardrobe door speakers and strange light bulbs on top of an amp set up.
My work here is done.

Fot the odd DB album I suggest 'My life in the bush of ghosts'

I was aware James and I may have them on the remastered cd's I bought but managed to acquire the 24/96 recordings and Remain In Light especially is a revelation,not sure on the others haven't compared enough. Edit went back and listened to Remain In Light it is excellent but would suggest you try the HD Tracks 24/96 version. Completely different mix that took me a while to warm to but a must have.

Try Grown Backwards I think it is very good and very good for the testing/comparing.
Nigel will be getting use to this one over the next while!
Thanks for that. I will compare the CD and DVD-Audio versions and then maybe think about HD-tracks. It's ages since I last listened to either version ..
