I have brand new ears!
Well, maybe only figuratively, but it's worth explaining! For the past few weeks, I've been randomly running through my vinyl LP collection and pulling out albums to digitize into CDs, and listening to them as if they were contemporary new releases! And enough time has passed, for most of them, that it absolutely works!
The sticking point is that they must be at least 20 years old or so and never have been issued on CD! At least, CDs that I have! And I'm pretty up on this stuff! So within the last week or so, I've been listening to de-clicked and "restored" albums by Champion, Melton, Levy & The Dey Brothers, the Chanter Sisters, Supercharge, Charlie, Fandango--and guess what? I think that old albums that were made to be played on the radio but never were sound best of all! Why? Because in 2010, they sound avant-garde as heck!
Color TV is also pretty cool!
