Work In Progress (Take One)

 

The Doors - L.A. Woman Sessions [R1 670994 DEU RSD2022 24-Bit 176.4kHz FLAC]

Imagine the full recording sessions of one of your favourite albums were preserved on tape for over fifty years and then cut complete by the great Bernie Grundman to a four album box set. I can think of quite a few albums that I would really like to hear in this format.These are definitely for the completists out there, however the quality of these studio out-take recordings is phenomenal. 

The chatter between the various band members and producer Bruce Botnick is worth the price of admission alone. Botnick was also responsible for the mastering of the reels for this four album set.

Things are going to quieten down a bit for the next week or so as I have to deal with other matters, in the meantime, this little lot will keep you lot busy!
