Not got them but thinking about getting them all except Beaubourg.


what's wrong with Beaubourg John? ;-)


I can't listen to that album either...


I sometimes enjoy Beaubourg but dont feel I need a remaster whereas all the others are classics and I dont have Page of Life..

What's the general impression here for the quality of Esoterics releases? I'd like to be excited by these, but I seem to recall someone here mentioning that several of their TD 'remasters' were just sourced directly from the original CD releases.

I saw this last week about those remasters from Esoteric, but i won't bother as i have the Japanese Mini-LP (gatefold) CD remasters.

Some like em some dont...Of the many I own on that label I think they are excellent....and they have put ut loads of old albums that were difficult or expensive to find..never had a problem with their remastering either.

so, anyone already heard those discs? an image of the waveform would be greatly appreciated. the label says vangelis remastered them himself; has he destroyed his audio, or is it really restored?

they are excellent..very noticeable difference from the old cd versions. I did compare and on the Elsewhere site they say there is some reverb and other slight differences to these discs. If you like the albums I can highly recommend them. My only gripe is the booklets are very sparse on info.

yes, I have just heard the Heaven and Hell sample from amazon (check http://elsew.com/data/latest.htm for the links). The sample is a section from the very first part of the album - and there was a strongly noticeable reverb, which I don't like at all. What a shame.

Yeah I listened to the whole H & H album last night ..SQ is better but I'm not to keen on the very noticeable tweaking done to the music. Still a good listen though.
