If anything GEER needed unmastering. You could only take away, not add.
don't you have a milli vanilli comp to go listen to or something?

That's generally in the mixing, not the mastering process. Whole different beast. So you would take some sounds off GEER or minimize them or what?

Yeah, was just a jibe.

I would strip way some Mick, add some Joe. I liked the way you could hear Joe's Telecaster on the first album, GEER is just Mick City.

Yeah I love Joe's Tele clang on the debut, and stupidly he was always mixed low live, until '82. But listen to Last Gang In Town - that's obviously Joe's stroke on the main rhythm, along with the only natural and live drum sound Topper got on the whole album. Actually, Joe's guitar is all over and well mixed (not quite so clangy as on s/t), and I know you can tell the difference, mate!

I didn't know you had done one for Sandinista. I can't wait to hear this. I'm coming off an unexpected sickness, so this should pick up my spirits. Thank you!

A pleasure mate. Hope you feel better.
There's a lot of wow moments in this mix. Great, great work! I have to get out my old copy of Sandinista! because this version of Something About England sounds totally new to my ears. It sounds like a track I should've been loving all of these years instead of one I've mostly skipped over. Its wistfulness that builds into a real galloping power somehow works for me now.

I have missed your sandinista Mix too The first time around.
Sonically its great as usual,i'd say on par with Sound System (in few cases like rockers galore even Superior).
The aditional tracks are nice, Stop The world, Cool Out(my favourite piece of studio-clash), radio one etc fit very nicely into The Album! I maybe would have put the robber Dub to The Extras as three bankrobber Versions are a Little exhausting :mrgreen:
Its Always weird to hear an album you know so well in a completely different order. Yours makes more sense as as you put The songs together with similar flows.
But i would prefer the glorious mess that is the original Album!

Can't wait for the Bonds Show

Brilliant stuff. Always thought it was a shame that the Dirty Harry version never got an official release, but now with extra Bugs Bunny! Cheers Marky.
