Just listened to The Blue Nile


I've been auditioning some new cables and pulled out "Hats" by The Blue Nile. It's a favorite of mine and I hadn't heard it in a long time. Every song is so evocative, and the strings work so well with the rest of the music. It came out in 1989 and for me it just gets better...the new cables do help. I wish they had gone on to record more music.

Both their debut album and Hats have just been released in remastered CD versions with additional tracks.

They sound a lot better than the original CD's.

The Paul Buchanan album is from this year-a pretty good record.
Disc: 2
1. Seven A.M.
2. Christmas
3. Let's Go Out Tonight
4. Saturday Night
5. Headlights On the Parade
6. The Wires Are Down - 'b' side to 'The Downtown Lights' single

The additional tracks on both discs are not particularly essential overall I would argue the remastering is...the best these records have sounded on CD
