troutman Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I had the original album when it came out. I left so much stuff with my sister when I came to Alaska. She lost all of it to the owner of the building she was renting a place from. Behind on rent. And the rest is history. :madra: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorraine Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'm listening to the CD now. It sounds to me more like the Red Barchetta from Chronicles. It's better than the one on the video that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Barchetta Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'll probably get booted out of TRF for this, but the best thing Rush could have done is let go of the reins and let Peter Collins take them after "Power Windows." That was the best sounding Rush album. Can you guys imagine how their more hard rocking post-"Hold Your Fire" stuff would have sounded with him at the controls? My God, "Vapor Trails" would be legendary! And "Clockwork.." wouldn't be far behind. All the remix stuff...well, I'm lost on that! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irenicus Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Can you guys imagine how their more hard rocking post-"Hold Your Fire" stuff would have sounded with him at the controls?Um no need to imagine, just listen to Counterparts or Test for Echo... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those both sounded good. "Test for Echo" was done-in by abysmal songwriting. Counterparts was a very good-- often underrated album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas7 Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) Can't seem to be able to quote people. Spaghetti Lee you have answered what I have always suspected. My major question was always, why do I keep having to mess around with my stereo settings every time I put a live Rush DVD on? I have the original ESL on VHS but no longer have a video player, is it worth transferring the video to disc? I was lucky to see the Permanent Waves, Moving Pictures and Signals tours.I have downloaded a version of ESL remastered by some random guy but sound is muddy.

They played "Heart Full of Soul" three times and then left the stage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tas7 Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Another question, I have noticed there is a huge difference between the stereo and 5.1 sound in terms of volume, the stereo versions are very quiet but loud in terms of dynamic range if you know what I mean. I have to play them at twice the volume of say, Led Zeppelin's - How the West was Won and yet as stated by Spaghetti Lee it's over saturated.

PolarizeMe Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I'll probably get booted out of TRF for this, but the best thing Rush could have done is let go of the reins and let Peter Collins take them after "Power Windows." That was the best sounding Rush album. I think Peter Collins was the second best producer behind Terry Brown. PoW was my favorite sounding album post-Signals/pre-90s Rush. I also applaud him for persuading the band to go heavier after RTB, even if those albums aren't as well liked as the others. (I love Counterparts though!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
