Response to Is remastering all it's cracked up to be?

Hi, Thanks for those accurate comments, Ship To Shore has in fact been remastered already and sounds great. A direct trasfer of the tapes was made without compression etc. There was very little tape hiss on the masters. Before it goes onto cd we will go through another mastering process but this will only tidy the frequency range that is already there. We like to keep the sounds as near as poss to the original with minimal interference. After not hearing the masters for twenty years I was pleasantly surprised to hear all sorts of small subtlies that I had forgotten about so in the Autumn you listeners can join in the fun in digital. The Ship did reach Shore then despite the Chris De Burgh pale echo of it in '81.N.M.J.
