I've been inside of Collinwood.

From so many posts I've seen in the past, I didn't think there was any appreciation for Richard Cole's "Stairway to Heaven". Does it depend on who posts the photos or text?

Gov't Mule's entire performance of Houses of the Holy This was from a Halloween show in 2007 in Minnesota, I believe. Excellent !

I'd love to hear those Russian cds. I remember when they were on eBay, but I didn't buy them as they were pretty expensive. I have to correct something I said. The only music on the anthologies that was remastered was what had already been released, like the Tony Sheridan songs. My Bonnie, Ain't She Sweet etc. The other music was "mastered" with the best equipment at the time of release. The music hadn't been legitimately released previously to have ever had the need for 'remastering". The anthologies were the first legit processing for release. Sorry about my screwup. Stuff like the isolated string parts for Eleanor Rigby were mixed and "mastered" for the anthologies. They sound "remastered" but in fact were just treated to mid 90s remixing then mastering (definately superior to mid 80s). It seems confusing but if music had never been prepared for public consumption and release, there's no "remastering" to be done, only an first-time "mastering".

Sunburnable, seeing as how I'm roasted like a lobster! I think it was 85 or 86 today. I'd been loving the upper 60 degree days, now it's getting into the less comfortable summerlike temps. It NEVER needs to be above mid 70s to me.

I'm not understanding your post. The tapes for the Capitol boxsets WERE remastered from the "Capitol tape mix". The September release will be the first time the ENTIRE catalog is to be remastered. In 1987 a few of the original cd's were released as remastered versions. Help (ADD), Rubber Soul(ADD), Magical Mystery Tour, Abbey Road were among those remastered (Check your cd booklets and see there). The others were "just" mastered for cd. Then "1", "Love", Let it Be "Naked" and the redone "Yellow Submarine" featured remastered product. Plus all the music on the Anthologies (outtakes, partial takes and finished takes) were remastered too. I'll still get the boxsets of the newest remasters though, knowing they'll be superior to anything before it too. And as far as my "fifth" time getting their catalog, I'm talking original albums, singles, imports, reissues, cd's etc. I hadn't gotten EVERYTHING 5 times, but much of it, YES !

I'm saving $20 a week in a special "Beatle Fund" to buy all of the available cd's. Both box sets. It'll mark about the 5th time I've bought a new generation of Beatle music.

As with so many things, "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones" Accusers need to produce their own substantiation and reveal their own experience in detail or put up or shut up.

If they do reunite, the Face will have had plastic surgery. Ronnie Lane is dead.

The acting is this movie was so convincing. I think you'll find focusing on Ahmet's part this way. "You think pennies, you'll get pennies; You think dollars, you'll get dollars!"

Did you see "Ray" reids? If so, did you think this curtis fellow played Ahmet well?

I don't know anything about how much actual footage there is of Ahmet available, but in the movie "Ray" (Ray Charles), Ahmet is depicted prominently by a great actor and I'd assume he fairly accurately depicts him. Jamie Fox did so well as Ray, and Charles was "overseeing" the production so I'm sure Ahmet's part was equally acted competently. I recommend checking out this movie for a bit of Ahmet's early business techniques. He was generous, humorous and so music savvy. He was at ground zero in the development of Rock and Roll and Ray Charles was one of the pioneers as well, often overlooked in this regard.
