It is - he is going off about that in the media now.

I never thought of that. I think it was primarily over the song You Shook Me. In the liner notes of the last re-master, Jeff talks about why they did not play Woodstock. It seems to me he was never satisfied with the music. He also had Mickie Most trying to make him a pop star vs. what he actually wanted to do. Truth and Beck-Ola were thrown together pretty quick - in a matter of days, which is part of the charm I think. But according to Jeff, they really needed some songs, and did not have any. Truth - August 1968 Led Zeppelin - January 12 1969

I am curious to hear them. The ones out now don't sound as bad as the old Stones cds, I know that much.

Ross Halfin has posted some photos on his blog. I think Joe Perry looks like Mrs. Robinson (the hair).

Uh, ok. Just give me your address and I will take care of it.

That's what they were about - stereo was an afterthought. If I recall correctly, The Beatles did really involve themselves with mixing until Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

I never owned any of the pre-Beggars Banquet albums ever, so I just went and got them all one day. I picked all the 2002 ABKCO releases from the first one through Let It Bleed. Of the new re-masters, I will probably buy what I already have: Sticky Fingers, Exile on Main St., Goats Head Soup, It's Only Rock 'n' Roll, Black and Blue, Some Girls, and Tattoo You. I don't think I have Emotional Rescue on cd.

Do you mean this one: Jeff Tweedy 01/31/2009, Foellinger Auditorium, Urbana, Illinois It's out there - multiple sources. Someone should be able to help you out.

I've read her new album sold over 40,000 copies already.

I paid 12-13 dollars each - except for the White Album I have on cd, it was 20 bucks I think. I can't recall if the ABCKO Stones re-masters were more than that - I think they probably were. The last one I bought must have been the Let It Be re-issue, and before that, the BBC sessions.

Exactly. I wonder if Mick is going to re-mix Exile on Main Street ? I have read that he wants to do that. I suppose I am behind on my Beatle cd buying - I never bought the Capitol boxes.

Speaking of The Beatles, I found this online the other day:

I've always had that notion also. The whole deal about Truth being a Zeppelin rip-off, and Jimmy's statement about Beck's Bolero ("wrote it, produced it, played on it"), etc. I recall reading these things more than once. I guess they left that behind long ago.

I rather liked the above.

Walmart and Best Buy also. They seem to be carrying some new releases, various greatest hits type cds, and popular catalog - such as Dark Side Of The Moon, or whatever now.

In case anyone wants to read it: We talked about cd sales in this thread. I read somewhere the other day that all the Virgin Megastores are closing. At this point, if I want something that is not brand new, I have to buy it from Amazon.

Once again, James Hetfield is a class act. That's some powerful stuff at about 6 minutes into Master of Puppets.
