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

Theo,
Your absolutely right about Moraz being a showman. He was a finely dressed musician in his own respect. I saw them on their "Other Side of Life Tour" and he was playing around with Thomas just as you outlined. The Anderson flute thing is really funny! Today's bands just don't equal yesterday's charm.........

you are right on the spot with that quote, what could have been better than front and center in the New Orleans municipal auditorium with Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull playing, Anderson dressed like mike nelson sea hunt, or the passion play tour, those were the days, saved in our own vaults, mike

Zeneith, Moraz was also a great keyboardist as well. He added something to the Moodies, but I think it took them away from their roots and they have never found their way back. But I do enjoy his addition to the sound. I just miss Pinders influence. He kept them in that "concept LP"
frame of mind. Hayward and Lodge just don't get there anymore for me.

the mfsl releases are not as good as the origial u.s. capitol versions or the parliphone uk's. the dynamics of those original pressings is nowhere to be found.
