(TV) MM vinyl reissue
My copy of the 4 Men With Beards reissue of Marquee Moon just arrived.
The thickest slab of vinyl you ever saw, faithfully reproduced original
pics and graphics extended to a glossy gatefold sleeve with intelligent
liner notes, full lyrics on the inner sleeve, a sticker on the
cellophane that says "It's hard to conceive of a world without Marquee
Moon being part of it..." (and who's going to argue with that?). Great
sound - I just put it on the turntable and it was like hearing it again
for the first time way back in '77. Joy.
Full marks to the 4 Men With Beards label - this is how these things
ought to be done. My only personal gripe is that the title track doesn't
fade but ends as it does on the CD (and presumably, of course, did in
the studio). Damn it, this track isn't _supposed_ to end!
Forget the CD - get a copy and listen to it properly!
