Tomberry,
Does this mean you haven't got 'altitude' yet?
If not and its decent production you're looking forward to then prepare to
be dissapointed!
'Raise the roof' is piss poor production, it sounds weak and tepid as
compared to the live shows.
Ruins a fine song.
'Up in a down world' though is a different story, thats well done and has
a magical middle building up the tension before crashing back into the
chorus.
The low fi still works well on the super 'star below' - (does anyone know
if Gerald just added his words to an already formualted song?) and the
haunting Hexanal.
But the production is patchy throughout, the result of it being recorded
in different places in different times I guess.
'Swagger remastered' though is a bloody hoot, lordy but that sounds good
all over again!
There again you liked 'here comes the queen' so may rave about the album!
Takes all sorts to love the 'planes! And thats why we love 'em! Nothing
uniform here.

Record Player but I can't stand the production, the 'lo-fi' thing only
worked for me on 'Here Comes the Queen'. I hope Altitude is better
because Raise the Roof and Beautiful Is, I've been waiting ages for and
am hoping for something with the production qualities of Life Model where
Broken and Mended and Smart Drug (and Backing Singers) really sound good
when you put them up to 11 (sorry, spinal tap jibberings).
I wonder if EMI would fork out to re-record/repackage it (Record
Player)? That's what I'd like, anyhow. They only have to do Paper
Plane/Had it All/Hush/I Need. Just do the ep for me, that's fine. -Then
reform and sign up Cud, they can do the same there and perhaps with
Citizen Fish............................
Enough of my blurting.
Best
Tom.
