CD Reviews

It could've been better, lots..

DGS | PA-United States | 12/18/2008

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I received the item the other day and could not wait to listen to this version. I own the original import (nude cover), and the 1997 remaster, the best one IMHO.

The print advertising I saw said that it was in 5.1 DTS, and contained 2-track PCM audio. So, if you are into Hi-Res sound this looked like a winner. The product info here at Amazon seems incomplete.

Unfortunately, the DVD did not contain a 5.1 remix of the album, but an extended "Making of.." culled from the original Classic Albums release. To their credit, the video is crisp, and that is in 5.1 DTS or PCM. The video is very informative, special guests like Jack Cassidy & Steve Winwood add a lot.

The CD on the other hand, remastered again, sounded flat with limited imaging and no depth to the soundstage. Tape hiss seemed very loud as well. I was disappointed.

I can understand that tampering with Jimi's original 2 channel mix could be heresy, therefore no 5.1 mix. But, an uncompressed 2-channel PCM audio version would be stunning, maybe some day.

The packaging is good, but 3 stars, for my 3rd edition, is all it deserves in my rating."
