Robert & Alison-Raising Sand


I just got this gem on vinyl the other day and i must say its fantastic. Quite the combo doing what they do best!

Anybody else had the chance to listen to this yet?
Opinions?

Cheers

I think the recording is so rich and filled with harmonic complexity that most systems reproduce it as being a poor recording(which it's not). It's not the best recording by any means but, it ain't that bad. It reminds me of my Elvis Costello Allen Toussaint "The river in reverse" cd. I used to think this disc was poorly recorded but, after making some upgrades to the rig in the last 6 months it turns out to be a very good disc indeed. It seems that if recording are recorded with any weight or rich harmonics that most sysyems just can't resolve it out.
