Listening to the new stereo mix now. Sounds good to me! I know that Bill has his own views on remixes - would you touch up the Mona Lisa? :) - but this one sounds fine to me. In fact, I haven't noticed any significant differences from the original - but everything is crystal clear.
MM became my favourite BBD album. When I first heard it, I was underwhelmed by it, after the pomp of Futurama and the pyrotechnics of Sunburst Finish. But with repeated listening it worked its way into my brain. I became used to and understood the structure, and it became a wonderful piece of music - both consistent and varied, if that makes sense. The songs are, of course, very different, but to me they make up a much more cohesive whole than the preceding albums. As I said, my favourite BBD album.
Arrived here today! Will be spending considerable time this weekend wading through it all. Especially the "official bootleg". Didn't realise that was to be included, so a delightful surprise.
