RICK WAKEMAN SIX WIVES OF HENRY VIII (JAPAN REMASTERED IN 2003. ) (MADE IN AUSTRALIA) 1973 (8 PAGE BOOKLET) (mid price)
Это мне предложение по рассылке пришло.Действительно ЧУМОВОЙ SOUND?:-)Может кто слышал это?

Слышал, но сравнить с предыдущим изданием не могу :-(

> MADE IN AUSTRALIA
Конторка зовется kankard и, понятное дело, Австралия там имеет чисто символическое значение...

PS
У них еще есть "Король Артур" с комментарием: "Единственное в мире издание на CD с полным воспроизведением полиграфии LP".

А у меня как раз пиратка (Генрих) лет так семи от роду.Звучит как-то динамически недостаточно.Но это я с винилом сравниваю,который слушал в 70-е:-)).Король Артур у меня вообще практически без полиграфии,одна страничка:-(.

> Король Артур у меня вообще практически без полиграфии,одна страничка:-(.
Зато, небось, с надписью "вязью" Limited Edition или Digitally Remastered :-)
Если да - это предыдущее издание того же Kankard'а :-)

karp***
Он самый.Странички конечно две:-).На обратной махонькие картинки-иллюстрации к каждому треку.Наверное новое издание тоже с ЧУМОВЫМ звуком:-)).

A 30th anniversary collectors-edition DVD chronicling Yes keyboardist Rick Wakeman's Australian tour in support of his 1974 live album Journey to the Centre of the Earth is due out June 7. The special set contains bonus material not featured in the original 2001 Journey to the Centre of the Earth DVD release, including additional performance footage and new interviews with Wakeman and his backing band.

In April 2005, invited by the Ministry of Culture, the Cuban Music Institute and the Swiss foundation, “Association Friends of Cuba” – Rock Keyboard legend Rick Wakeman travelled to Havana, to perform a series of concerts that will forever be recognised internationally as an enormous event for the Cuban people, and a historic moment marked by the importance of one of the first and largest official Rock concerts ever to be performed on the Island.

The trip was initiated by the Swiss-Cuban solidarity group which supports and sponsors a hospital in Havana specifically for children with cancer. With the intention of raising awareness for the charity Rick was happy to help in any way he could before continuing his tour to Mexico and Costa Rica.
This DVD captures the spectacular performances along with a documentary on this momentous event which will undoubtedly be worthy of an entry in the chronicles of rock music history.
“Made in Cuba”, the DVD will present Rick Wakeman with his band the English Rock Ensemble performing to a 5,000 capacity crowd live at the Karl Marx Theatre in Havana, Cuba.

Wakeman devoted most of the concert to classic tunes from the 1970s, including songs from his "The Six Wives of Henry VIII" (’73), "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" (’74) and “King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table” (75) albums, plus a recent stage favourite from the “Out There” album called “Cathedral of the Sky” and the YES classics “Starship Trooper” and “Wurm”.

A report by AP about the final concert said, “The crowd roared when he played ‘Arthur’ -- the theme song for a weekly cultural program on Cuban television titled, ‘History of Cinema.’”

Album Description
The idea for the RETRO album came about as the container housing all Rick’s equipment was being loaded into a truck on the Isle of Man in order to begin thejourney to its new home in England.
As more and more flight cases were opened to check contents, his engineer and co-producer Erik Jordan, was continually coming out with comments such as:- "What on earth is that"? That’s got to be older than me"! And "When was the last time you plugged that in"?!
Over a cup of tea during a break in the loading Erik said "You know it would be great to make an album just using vintage keyboards. No midi, no sequencing...just raw performance on original instruments. Proper drum kit, the whole works just like it used to be before I was born"! And so that moment heralded the birth of RETRO.
Being brutally honest, it was not the easiest of projects for many reasons, not least the total unreliability of the equipment. Some instruments had not been switched on for nigh on 30 years and even though "lights" shone brightly when connected to the mains, often little else happened. The average age of the keyboards used was around 35 and the "youngest" keyboard that took part in the adventure was just 25 years old.
Many of the keyboards had total minds of their own, and often or not sounds would change at will or never be recovered the following day. Some instruments even decided on which days certain notes would, or wouldn’t work. One piece actually had to be rewritten in order to accommodate the working notes of the particular instrument involved!
