I Know My First Name Is Stephen
^^Oh, I forgot to mention--forgive my lapse--that the UK Passage LP sounds
the best of everything I have played....but, I am going to cycle through all of the
B-wana's I own (today ) to give you more detail regarding that song !
From all the comments/discussions I've ever read about the poor sound of Passage, I don't think I've ever seen a reply that satisfactorily answers the question: why?
The one thing we are all clear on is that it's definitely sub par compared to other albums. I guess the only person who can answer that question is Richard himself and he'd probably claim he doesn't hear anything wrong, just as he did regarding the mix of Karen's vocals on Made In America. If he did hear anything wrong with the mastering, I'm sure he'd have corrected it by now on one of the many re-issues.
