FGTH remaster?


FGTH remaster?

Postby DonGately » Thu Jan 04, 2007 1:55 am

I just saw on Amazon that a reissue of Welcome to the Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes to Hollywood was released a couple years back. One of the reviewers said it had been remastered. Has anyone picked it up? If so, what's the sound quality like?

If it's on the Reportoire label (Germany?), the remasters sound very good. I haven't picked up Pleasuredome, but the have the Maximum Joy 12" remix cd, and it is definitely remastered. They seem to take care with the packaging too.

I picked up WTTP. The sound quality is very good. The track listing is slightly different from the original CD issue.

The remaster has the short version of Two Tribes but includes San Jose, while the original has a 9 minute version of Two Tribes and The Last Voice, but does not include San Jose.
