I'm sure I can't be the only person with this gripe. I'm got most of the PJBE recordings on vinyl. However, with most of them approaching 20 years in age, they're sounding a bit worse for wear.
(Time to get on the soapbox!) WHEN WILL THE RECORD COMPANIES (DECCA IN PARTICULAR) GET OFF OF THEIR BUTTS AND REMASTER THESE CLASSIC PJBE SESSIONS!! If they did so, practically every brass player in existance will buy them. If find it incredible that Decca refuses to remaster in my mind, what is the ultimate brass ensemble recording: Elgar Howarth's arrangement of Pictures. Time to petetion Decca methinks....
If you hadn't guessed, I'm really mad!
