    Rsd 2019: Europa ep

    According to the Record Store Day website, the release is a "RSD First" release so that means a digital or CD release down the road is highly likely.

    Book Of Your Heart (U2 saved the best for last)!

    "Songs of Innocence+" was put out solely on iTunes because they needed to provide a way for people who wanted the "Deluxe" version tracks without having to buy the whole Deluxe version, since they gave the standard edition of the album for free on iTunes. I don't believe it was released on any...

    The Blackout (Jacknife Lee Remix)

    Blackout Remix Hi. I'm wondering if this is available anywhere but on the vinyl internationally? I know I read it was available on the Japanese CD also, but don't know how to go about getting a copy mailed to me. I'm jmel1229@gmail.com if anyone has access to a vinyl rip they care to share...

    Achtung Baby/ Zooropa remaster/ reissue - Part V/Five

    Re: "Mastered For iTunes" From: http://productionadvice.co.uk/mastered-for-itunes/= (BTW, the standard bitrate for iTunes is 256kbps. 128 is SO 2 years ago... :-) ) This is part of a bigger article, referenced above, where the author was disparaging "Mastered For iTunes" as hype, but then...

    U2 want to RE-rerelease BOY!!???!??

    I think people that are so repulsed/freaked out about the idea of the band re-recording past works forget that this new version does not delete the original version from the CDs. I for one would be interested in hearing how their music experiences and different perspective now might take older...

    U2 Go Home Audio: DVD (PCM) vs new CD opinions

    I am just now getting my copy of U2 Go Home on the fanclub CD and was wondering if anyone has opinions on the CD's audio quality compared to the DVD's PCM stream? My initial impression is the CD is LOUDER, but that might be bad as compression could be to blame. I did see on the CD credits that...

    EGM hints at a U2-based Guitar Hero game

    And maybe Edge gets a powerup by puttting on different hats?

    EGM hints at a U2-based Guitar Hero game

    Actually, I think their own game is EXACTLY what they meant. Hell, if Aerosmith is getting THEIR own, why not the boys? Apparently the Guitar Hero folks want to strike while the iron is hot, so band-specific ones wouldn't be hard to do. Other than hair and clothes, the models would remain the...

    EGM hints at a U2-based Guitar Hero game

    I just got my copy of Electronic Gaming Monthly. In addition to mentioning a game based on Aerosmith is on the way, they also added: "I'm hearing two more Guitar Hero titles are also in the works, bringing GH3's sequel count to four. And one may star a group that rocks in mysterious ways." The...

    NTSC/PAL for Joshua Tree DVD?

    Ah-ha! That's what I wondered... Does anyone actually HAVE the set and can see on maybe the booklet inside if it is PAL or NTSC? Since the NA version is Region 0, I was wondering if maybe they just mastered 1 DVD worldwide (since Region 0, I believe, is essentially "no region") and that's what...

    NTSC/PAL for Joshua Tree DVD?

    Heh... I ordered my copy of The Joshua Tree (2CD/DVD) set from Amazon.uk when it first became available, because I am easily duped when I read that it will be available as a "super limited edition." *I* think, "Oh, it is extremely limited numbers," and not, "Oh, it's super, like...

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    No... the original CD single had this version on it back in 88. Edge's vocals were notably louder in that as well, and for that reason it was the version i put on all my high school mix tapes!

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    I'm not sure they're the WORST, but I think anyone expecting the remaster of The Unforgettable Fire to bring it up that which we expect of digital recordings is going to be sorely mistaken. Even the MFSL gold disc of TUF has a lot of tape hiss on it. Recording an album in a castle may add a lot...

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    I was being sarcastic in my original posting. They obviously couldn't have soundchecked, boot shopped, photo sessioned, drank/played pool at a bar in Gila Bend, had lunch by the pool, and then spent the night closing a c/w bar in Arizona on the same day as playing a show in France that afternoon...

    "A Very Special Christmas" DVD is in MONO !?

    Sad times... I got my 20th Anniversary "A Very Special Christmas" DVD from Amazon today, and I popped it into my computer and to my suprise the DVD ripping software gave me the option for one audio track: MONO. (One track, and that track was one channel.) So, I checked it on the computer's DVD...

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    According to the credits, the "Outside It's America" documentary was ALSO filmed on July 4, 1987. What a busy day for the boys!!

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    $100?! is THAT how much they go for these days? Hell, I got mine for like $30 (all 3 albums, actually) and thought it was a bargain.

    The Joshua Tree remastering (comparisons)

    I plan to enjoy this on my iPod in Apple Lossless for a while before I downgrade it to 256kps. Now, what to do with this slightly used copy of the Joshua Tree gold disc from Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs...?

    I have both and will try to compare later. I'm not sure I have headphones up to the challenge. :-)
