Re: Sandinista ! Strike Out Edition.
This is a great version of the album. The band obviously wanted to mix and match and sprawl the story, which was very cool, but this probably would have gone over better, saving the dubs for album three.

Love the work you've put into it. Having a beer and relistening again to Living in Fame. I am a contented man.Marky Dread wrote: ↑16 Apr 2019, 3:18pmGlad you are liking it. I'm pleased with the mix. You can hear little bits extra in this mix.

Cheers as always Marky! I'll download when I get home tonight and give it a spin this evening or tomorrow.
I've always been meaning to ask, what sources do you use for your mixes?

Got another operation a week on Thursday. That will be five in two and a half years.
Funnily enough it is the same day that Endgame is released here in the UK!

Re: Sandinista ! Strike Out Edition.
Absolutely Kory the pacing is a big thing. Sometimes though the strength of a songs playing/writing is not in it's ferocity like say SEH but in it's ability to grab you after a couple of listens like (WM) iHP. I remember that interview with Joe where he said they used to like to hit you smack on the head at first but then realised a few strokes of the hammer here and there were more powerful. I like this tactic very much.Kory wrote: ↑16 Apr 2019, 3:30pmSounds pretty close to my method, but do you subscribe to the notion that there are proper slots for songs on a tracklist?
