Beatles MFSL box set


Category: Music

i have just received this box set, cleaned it with disc doctor fluid and brushes and my manual method, i have played up to revolver, i cant understand what took me so long to get my hands on the vault, the sonics on the early lps are super, the air and imaging are great, compared to a long list of early Beatles lps i have gone through, on Sunday and with the Beatles for me thats what Sundays are for, except going to church first, then its Beatles Sunday, and O happy day, mike

hey zenieth
if there is anyone else i enjoy a little more sometimes its the moody blues, the childrens lp on mfsl is not to good, i have a decca threshold white label that smokes the mfsl so i stayed away from the rest, thanks for the heads up on seventh sojourn, my british copy is lacking the upper end, will be on the look out for a mfsl copy, thanks mike.
I second er a third the Moodys Seventh Sojourn. My favorite was Every Good Boy but the recording was never very good. Unfortunately the Moodys Made some great music they just had some bad recordings. Like Picasso on Cardboard.
theo i have been going to the uk ebay site received a few moodys lps hoping for a musical lp or two i am 1 out of 3, a question of balance is very musical top to bottom, struck out on sojourn, and every good boy, my best for those two are us pressings, and they are lacking the air i like, got to love them moodys, we made the trip to st. louis last year to catch them, first tour without ray, the young lady who filled in on the flute did a fine job, they have a cd that came out earlier this year of the whole show,
Stltrains, Sure gonna miss Ray Thomas' voice and writing. His solo albums are great if you can find them. He had such a deep smooth voice with great range. I have the latest DVD that had the new Flutist and she does a great job but sing "For My lady". I saw them several times at Red Rocks and was there when they recorded with the Colo Symphnany (spelling sux I know). But they were a great band I feel they were better in the days of Michael Pinder, but they did good after, just not the same feel.
Haywards solo albums are good too if you haven't got 'em.
I too saw them about three years ago in a small venue in Youngstown, Ohio. Ray and Patrick were both absent due to retirement. The acoustics were horrible in the facility. There was a lady on flute and she did a superb job! The German Imort of "Question of Balance" is also very well recorded! "Sojourn" is hard to find in the MOFI pressing. As far as digital goes ........ The MOFI cd of "Sojourn" is also very good. But lacks the luster of the black circle! Stltrains, be patient and you'll end up with the superb MOFI "Sojourn". Let me know your thoughts once you've had a chance to listen to it. "Picasso on cardboard" now that could very well be a master piece indeed! :))
