Metamatic (Deluxe), again and again and again...

Tomorrow: Metamatic (Deluxe)

Saturday: Metamatic (Deluxe)
Sunday: Metamatic (Deluxe)

Since I put CD1 in the car,I've not stopped playing it either.The sound is so much better on the re-master.

There is an helpline number just started for anyone having problems playing 'Metamatic' too much. I phoned it yesterday, but its just a recording of John recommending which hifi to use.

Yeah! I swear I can hear percussion sounds I never noticed before, certainly on tracks like 'This City'.

I'm getting slightly obsessive with the second disc too - it seems to me to have a darker feel to it than the album, don't know how to describe it really; 'Through a Metamatic Darkly'...well, until the Vince Clarke-ness of 'Like A Miracle' anyhow!

I need to get out more and stop obsessing with this album. Mind you, I've probably said that since 1981!

Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Superb!

Seriously, though...what's that number?

If there was one it would be into meltdown by now Garry. Ive played it just three times now by choosing other cds instead. But theres really only one album for the rest of this year.

Yes I was thinking that on the way to work about the percussion being more audible,I really need to do a side by side comparison.I'm noticing lots of things I've never noticed before,anything from the start of tracks to the fade outs being clearer/slightly longer.
