JIF8882, I think you were replying to some posts(?) Anyways, it's generally easier to click the "quote" button instead because then the post you are responding to shows up in your own post.

To me, that makes the song more eerie.

You should keep the new versions. I have the new TOTT, W&W, ATTWT, Duke, ABACAB, Shapes, Invisible Touch, and CAS mixes! They're better than any previous CD versions of these works. I got $200 for my 26th birthday, so I'm happy to blow a lot of money on the box set

You should be tempted, as am I. I got $200 for my 26th birthday Now, I have no need for YouTube, as the box set will have plenty of quality DVD footage

I am excited to hear Trespass remastered. I had the '93 MCA version. Was it remastered? Did not sound like it. Love the song samples, but I noticed that the website was missing some pages for the booklet. For instance: the lyrics to the 2nd half of Cinema Show and all the lyrics from Harold the Barrel are missing. Wonder if some of the mistakes from the '94 "definitive edition" remaster are fixed? For example Fly on a Windshield and Broadway Melody of '74 were tracked wrong?

And I figured out how to operate the site quicker!

I've gotta admit that especially the Knife sounds really really good. But the website is the worst flash monstrosity piece of sh*t I've ever seen. And I think I've got a pretty fast connection. I almost gave up before it had loaded the site one percent at a time in the first place and then I had to think for minutes (or at least one, but that's one too much) how to actually listen to those songs. Finally I found where to click and was left wondering if it really works until a couple of minutes later the song came blasting out of the speakers. Terrible, terrible site. And that one enthusiast a few posts up there actually went and said it was a good one.

Well, I already pre-ordered mine at CDUniverse for $105. Not a bad price for what you are getting. I already have all the albums (only two of which are remasters though), but I still am buying this without hesitation.

dat wuz awesome. looks like they "fixed" the part at the end of TMB where Tony drowns everyone out...I actually kinda liked it before  The Knife sounded even better than before, especially the guitar solo - can't wait to check to other ones out. Too bad the damn thing costs more than I have to spend

Hmm, strange vocals effects on "The Knife" as noted by Kestrel, on the "some of you are going to die" bit.

Listening to The Musical Box now. Sounds fantastic, a strange noise before the first solo, but the guitars sound great, the vocals are clearer and the whole thing sounds more powerful. Even the wet fish drums sound better. The vocals in the end section are much louder now and the keyboards have been taken down a few notches.
Definitely going on my Xmas list.

Cool! But the slightly muddy sound of the older CD releases is quite charming

Tempting! Didn't listen to any of the new mixes but looking at the
content of the box it looks to be well worth it. Unfortunately the only
album from the set I don't already have is The Lamb, maybe one day I'll
buy it just for the hell of it and sell the doubles

Thanks for the link! (although maybe I shouldn't be saying that - now I'm more tempted than ever to blow $125 on the set! ) The new material seriously looks/sounds great - worth the price of admission methinks
