Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
Holy smokes, thanks Marky! This is CR as it should be presented. Fuck the record labels with a rusty screwdriver, this is the real deal. Love the sequencing just from looking at the artwork.
Quick questions: am I forgetting that CR was mixed to mono for an official release or is this a special Marky Dread mix?

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
There's a note in the file saying it was made specifically for this set. The Monaural mixes remove a layer of synthesized sounds and gives more power to the guitar. They sound great in my opinion. And it's another way to listen.Flex wrote: ↑20 Mar 2023, 4:14pmHoly smokes, thanks Marky! This is CR as it should be presented. Fuck the record labels with a rusty screwdriver, this is the real deal.

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
This looks bloody great. Thanks so much mate.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
Well I’m voting to put marky in charge of the band’s legacy and give him full access to the archives.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Hello Marky,
I am amazed - how many hours in your day?
Thank you very much for this work!

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
I’ve said that many times. His care and attention to detail kicks the shit out of not just the Clash’ but most bands’ legacy work.

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
Capitol Air was spelt wrong on this artwork.
Here's a link to the corrected one.

Can't wait to listen to all this goodness, thank you Marky!

Re: Combat Rock Deluxe Edition
This full immersion into the Combat Rock era will surely erase the great disappointment for the release of Combat Rock + The People's Hall. Thank you, excellent project as always.

Incredible labour of love, wonderful artwork and I’m sure the audio quality it will be extraordinary as usual.
I’m seeing you did a remaster of Up and Et Em also and it’s like to come back in past at that incredible period when I was waiting their next album after Sandinista and i found in a shop this crazy bootleg.
Thanks Marky, i can listen “Once you know” finally!!
