One of my favorite (1970) songs by Tyrone Davis. Seems the actual master tape was discovered, hence the longer (previously unpublished) fade. I'm GUESSING this was supposed to be the ALBUM version. I mean, if you remixed, why fade so soon? Sadly, like KMA dude even doesn't like, I believe, some brick-walling of sound (waveform damage). I knew I could add some valued key frequencies, re-size max. amplitude, and away went the brick-wall waveform look. Marvelous! Sadly, the RMS value was already way too high, and I added to it! So, I had to tone it down a lot! Sort of like I had to do with Bob Ludwig's "mastering". Clowns.

Jack: Do you reealize, or remember, that you started a thread by this same
title some months back? You could have just added the above to that one
instead of now having two of the same title floating around here.


As for Ludwig? He is just following the $$$, whether supersquashing and
makeup on some projects, or going easy on others, like "Random Access
Memories". Whatever his customers pay him to do.

I got received the CD! Pretty difficult to note it when I didn't even know it existed!

Bob's most famous "thing" was squeezing a lot of music on vinyl LP and keeping it sounding good. After that, who knows what he did. I think he did receive a Grammy, but Grammy people really don't care about sound quality; more pay to play.
