@slaw, I was very familiar with the three Buffalo Springfield albums (my High School garage band included their "Mr. Soul", "Bluebird", and "Hot Dusty Roads" in our "repertoire") by the time my teen combo opened for The New Buffalo (BS drummer Dewey Martin and three hired sidemen, one of the Bobby's brother Randy Fuller) in '69. Dewey had sounded somewhat "weak" on their recordings (their "producers" were amateurs), but not so live! I got a valuable drumming lesson watching and listening to him play my Ludwig drumset in that Monte Vista High School gymnasium. Turned my notion of what good drumming is on it's head, in fact. Bye bye Rock band drummers, hello studio musicians!
GREAT MUSIC - SO POORLY RECORDED...
HI TO ALL... Made a change to isolating my speakers, so I'm pawing thru my CDs and listening for the changes/improvements - and I put in one of the all-time greats (IMHO), and I am still so disappointed in the quality of the recording:
BAT OUTTA HELL by Meatloaf (luv ELLEN FOLEY ON "... Dashboard Lights..."): UGH!
What are your personal disappointments?
Another for me: THE DANCE by Fleetwood Mac : OVERLY Bass heavy
