Jazzy Julie Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Is the sound quality a lot better then? I know on my current CD I have to turn the volume up loads. I'm not too bothered about remixes but I'd get it for better quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy who remastered it was taking about it in another forum, they are really proud. Good to get all of those 12” Remix tracks in cd quality. Do you have a link to that specific forum post? I'd like to read some of that convo. My copy came on Monday and I've been listening to it since. It really is a great purchase and it sounds really good. It's nice to get those super rare Brand New Funk remixes. I've always enjoyed the extended remix a lot better than the original. One thing that is cool is track 10 on the 1st CD. "Another Special Announcement" - it's the intro to "Too Damn Hype" with Will and Jeff and others just kicking it. I've never heard it before. It would've been nice to have the entire Live @ Union Square performance rather than some versions of Parents and Nightmare because there really isn't much difference between versions of these tracks. I hope this is the start of more remasters to come. Edited September 27, 2017 by DevilsJim89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fan 4ever Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I received my copy yesterday! Have been listening to it ever since! Love the remaster. The insert has some good information about the album and songs. Great release! I would love a remaster of Code Red with some bonus tracks.

Have been listening to it ever since! Love the remaster. I recently got it and have been listening to it a lot. The sound is definitely great. Some songs grab my ear more than others, appreciating the remaster. I like that the album was remastered in one of the studios they recorded it in. In terms Anything that works as well as phentermine of the music, I just wish they take l suggests didn't put the alternate versions of "Girls..." Yeah, it was remixed and re-recorded the same hear, but there is a Danny D remix (and extended and radio version) of "Parents..." that would have been a better fit. It would have also been nice if they released an instrumental version of all of the songs. There is a rare 1988 vinyl release of the instrumentals that I have, but the record is slightly warped, so it would be great to have them on CD and remastered since this release is kind of a dream come true. All of the pictures from the original release are in the insert, plus pictures of the cover of all single covers. Above the "thank you's" they have and saw awesome results individual pictures of the trio that I've never seen before. In addition to original notes on the CD insert, there is a little write up on the album which is a great, but short read. If you're thinking about getting this, stop thinking and GET IT! I had my doubts with the remasters as I tend to like the originals more. But the thumbs-up that you (and other fans) gave to the re-master forced me to order it from Amazon. Now, eagerly waiting for it. Edited July 7, 2023 by CassidyMJohnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dparrott Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 Just got mine from ebay. Good sized booklet with a lot of info and pictures of the singles. Yea I've always loved "Another Special Announcement", still remember it from the tape I had. And BNF live is so dope with the extra parts.

dparrott Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 The booklet says this started out to be Jazzy's album and that Prince was backing HIM up. I always thought the opposite. That's kind of messing with my head a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
