Wisseloord Studio's Holland (new version of OOTS)

[Neilz]

I guess everyone has noticed that the new version of Original Of The Species is far better than the album version...

The funny thing is that it's recorded on the road during the bands stay in Amsterdam, just like the video/single version of Please during Popmart...

Both single's (Please and Original Of The Species) are better than the album versions and both were recorded at Wisseloord... Should U2 consider recording an album overthere and use the Wisseloord tech's?

Just a thought (after hearing the outstanding new version of OOTS on the radio again)...

 

[The Disciple]

I've been trying to get my hands on that single version....

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

unless the tech's actually produced the track, what's the difference?

no, but what they should try again is to write songs, play them live for a couple months then record the album. Seems u2 songs dont really get going till they are played live. Thats why these versions are better than the album ones in my opinion

Logistically this is impossible, record company would never allow it (endless boots of the songs before the record would be recorded)

U2 has doen that many times before... Maybe 2 out of 3 singles were re-recorded for single release since Zooropa!

But these two (Please and Original Of The Species) are fár better than the original... I can't believe it's coincidence... Wisseloord studio's is well known in de recording industry... All the big names have recorded there once...

Than you don't know how important the engineers are in the recording process...

 

[two shots]

but who's to say they didn't bring in their own people?
