Originally released on 12 September in the U. Reached No. Dave Gregory - Guitars, synth, piano and the odd vox humana or two. Colin Moulding - Sings his songs and plays his Epiphone Newport. Andy Partridge - His own voice, a guitar he thinks he owns, a synth he's not sure who owns and other noises that could have been anybody's.
Blu-Ray: a 5. Additional songs from the album sessions in stereo and 5. Many album tracks in demo form as recorded mostly live at Phonogram Studios prior to the main album sessions. Three Andy Partridge demos from Phonogram studios. Generals And Majors. Towers of London. There are plenty of parts to spread around the room, with backing vocals asserting from the rears and whistling spreading out from the back left channel. Overall I found the mix to be extremely well balanced across the spectrum, and other than my personal distain for the big snare drum sound that was so prevalent during this era, I find Black Sea to have an excellent aural palate.
While my passion is music, I maintain a focus on surround sound releases as they provide an all encompassing listening experience.
Like the uniqueness of art, I continue to seek out releases that find creative ways to use the entire soundstage, knowing that each mix adds a different dimension to the music. Naturally the music lends itself to the mix style, and XTC gives so much that one can easily find aural ecstasy. Not only are you surrounded by vocals melodizing the title, take note to the whistle that repeatedly blows across the space from front to back, and check out the incredibly chunky guitar placed in a open room cranking from the front right channel.
Unusual to many Wilson mixes is the wild movement of drums and reverberant slaps of vocals at the tail of the song, enough to make your head spin with aural delight. Instead of describing it all here, I much rather allow you to listen to all of the amazing detail placed around the 5. Certainly the original flat transfer is a wonderful step up from the CDI got years ago, and the Wilson remixes are truly remarkable, giving new life to an already fabulous album.
Transients, upper end clarity, and bottom push definitely add to my joy of listening to Black Sea.
