GREAT reissue of one of Rod's best albums

"This review is for the 2009 2CD Limited Edition (catalogue # R2 516570).



I only knew this album through the hits "Tonight's The Night (Gonna Be Alright)" and "The First Cut Is The Deepest" but bought it based on the multiple positive recommendations at the Steve Hoffman forums (the best place on the internet for discussing the sound quality of music releases). Audiophiles at that site (Google it) have said "... the original mastering is a little brighter in the upper frequencies, and I think that Rod's voice sounds more natural on the new remaster .... These releases are really great and worthwhile" - I agree 100% with those comments.



This 2CD set has excellent sound quality that is a worthwhile upgrade over ALL previous releases.



Bottom line:

- This album has converted me from a casual fan only knowing the hits of this album to a much more serious Rod Stewart fan.

- The SQ is very very good and I found nothing wrong with it. The packaging is superb (although I'm not the biggest fan of this digi-pak style), although all the artwork is printed on thick card and the booklet is printed on very good quality paper. The graphics are excellent quality.



Highly recommended to buy this - even if you're just a casual Rod fan (as I was), you will find extra material on here worth listening to. It's that good I also bought the Atlantic Crossing (2 CD Limited Edition) too!"

Simply one of the finest...

"Simply one of the finest albums of Rod Stewart, "Tonight's the night" was the song to make love to all the Rod Stewart's fans in the seventies, romantic, beautiful and delightful, great song, great album!!! To make the things better the album also brings smash songs like "The Firts Cut is the Deepest" and "The Killing of Georgie"."
