ThirdDrawerDown Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I was listening to this and track 11 has been Stingified. It's a process that makes everything sound like "If you love somebody set them free". So I reached to the CD shelves and found a couple of useful compilations: this one is by the composer. This one is where the band make the song their own in fact, one of the finest examples of reshaping a cover version to be found in rock music. Mr Sting's version has now flown from my mind. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only first pressings of AC/DC I have heard are my own US copy of "For Those About To Rock" and a mates "Back In Black" back in my ag college days in his dorm room blasting out of his huge Cerwin Vega speakers. That sounded amazing but hardly fit for a comparison 38 years apart....but the old "For Those" sounds quite similar to the new remastered Back In Black.....so I am quite impressed with the German pressed George Marino remasters!

stevoz Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 As if to confirm my last post.....AC/DC "For Those About To Rock" US 1st pressing. Immediate impression, albeit a different album to BIB but same producer, would be the remasters have had an adjustment to slightly increase bass punch and maybe some treble tinkering.....but this first pressing does sound good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing I will say about this US !st pressing of "FTATR" is it is noisy.....a very un-US pressing like rumble is clearly audible between tracks.....the 2009 German pressings are definitely quieter.

Doing a little surfing for this one at the moment. On discogs right now. Just wondering how you ascertain that it's a German pressing? I'm looking at the 2009 Marino remaster, but discogs only has it listed as made in the E.U. Cheers Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoz Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 (edited) Spinning a NM copy of LRB's self titled debut, Oz 1984 EMI 'Maxicut' reissue which arrived in the mail today. https://www.discogs.com/Little-River-Band-Little-River-Band/release/2553739 Although I'd much prefer this cover (which came on the Oz cassette and one of the '75 Oz LP reissues....there were three issues in '75 alone, after sales of this album soared....then two more, 1984 and 2016.)

BuzzzFuzzz Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 A bit more Oz Rock/Metal... Heaven 'Twilight of Mischief' 1982 Deluxe Records and Tapes, RCA Aust. A fantastic sounding record from the band who opened for Maiden's 'Beast on the Road' 1982 - Sydney gig at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
