((i NEED)) to listen to that one all day long !!)) - Footnote#1 - now -which version do i want to lift off YouTube for my collection - the one in the garage is actually a House/remix of it - Footnote#2 - soooo - how many more songs DON'T i have with me when i DJ- (oh - yeah_ i am retiring) - LOL !!

@Stuge - well publicity stunt or stupidity - they need to "Police' who can get on that stage or not - Footnote#1 - anyhowzz - KW does make some good music/rap - i guess i won't "Trash" his songs - and i pulled out my 808's & Heartbreak (Parental Advisory) KW CD and am listing to it - but low- cause when my wife hears it she is gonna tell me to put on my ear-phones - Footnote#2 - i kinda like "RoboCop" track 7 - "okaaaaay - ok ok" - so- i put that song on repeat a lot - not for hot - but for Dot - she likes it too !! Footnote #3 "i could never be ur Robo Cop " - Footnote#4 she's just a L A Girl !! (you need to STOP it NOW !!!!)

after the other night - i think i am gonna "TRASH" break and flake my 808 CD of KW - he now sucks - he has not class - and tonight i refure to play ANY of his songs at the Sweet 16 BD Party i am DJ'ing - footnote#1 - did i (rayzray) say that KW SUCKS !!!! footnote#2 - it was a good album while it lasted !! footnote#3 - i am listing to "Real" music right now - like AC/DC etc !!

oh - i though he went to the masters - that's cool that he takes they from the vynyls - maybe that's why they sound fooooo good - i'll have to find the CD and listen to it again -

yes- i have a copy of Dr Ebbetts CD - don't know which one - but i used to LOVE to listen to his re-masters of the Beatles - i highly recommend his works - too -

i sent a copy of you post to one of my former piano students who is pretty much "into" the Beatles - he sent this back to me to paste here for you to read - ((Hi Ray, I don't read that board, but please copy/paste this response: ----- This is not correct. There are a few things: 1. The stereo set was *not* compressed in its entirety. There are some tracks to which no compression was applied, and others where compression was only applied to one channel (typically, the one with the most transients). In general, the amount of compression/limiting typically resulted in a volume boost in the range of 1db-3db. Less than 1.5db of compression gain in not audible. There are a couple of issues with the stereo set, but the compression isn't a big one. 2. There was no compression applied to the Mono set. None. You can try to determine this through comparisons with other masterings or vinyl pressings, but you will get incorrect results. Those masterings will may appear to have higher transients in some instances due to the amount of EQ that was applied at the frequencies dominant in the transients. EQ was not (as far as I know) applied to the Mono set. These were done flat. 3. As a final consideration, keep in mind that the original mixes (especially the mono mixes) were heavily compressed and limited. It many cases, the limiting was rather extreme. Revolver is a good example of this. If they applied 1db-3dbs of further compression, it would be virtually unnoticeable, as all of the peaks were already squashed. It is the same as bein upset that somebody drew on your blue wall with a blue crayon of the same shade. ))

LISTENING to my "Sound Efx" collection - this is too mych fun - i have about 30 or 40 CD's some regular - some "Rude" and some TV'ish and some Halloweenish - some Sci-Fi'ish - some Natualish - i like the "Rude" ones the best - footnote - loading them into Laptop-2 for this weekend's sweet 16 party - with a Disney theme - seems like i can use some of these - footnote#2 - this does not include my vast Bobby M CD collection of DJ fanfares - and efx - and themes - whch i will have with me in CD form - i like to LISTEN to them once in a while - especially the "Elvis has left the building" one !!
