That Makes It Sound So Much Better

Description

Buddy Holly with The Jack Hansen Combo: THAT MAKES IT SOUND SO MUCH BETTER 10 vinyl LP. Buddy Hollys apartment tapes are
well-known, particularly the six songs he wrote in December 1958 and recorded on his Ampex 401A tape-recorder. These were heard first in the
overdubbed versions produced by Jack Hansen in 1959 and 1960. Many fans prefer Buddys original guitar and vocal demos to the later
overdubbed versions. But the Jack Hansen versions using some of New Yorks finest session musicians, who were never really a Combo are still the ones that most fans remember. There were many flaws in the overdubbing, emphasised by the fact that Buddy Holly never envisaged the
tracks he made being used to create commercial releases and thus did not stick to strict tempo timing. And the equipment used to mix the
original 3-track tapes was primitive compared to todays computer-based technology. Modern technological advances have enabled us to remix
the tracks and errors in timing have also been corrected by producer Chris Hopkins. Chris spent many hours on each track, creating the best
versions you will ever hear of the six recordings. All have been remixed into mono and stereo versions you will hear instruments you never
heard before and the overall quality will surprise you! The LP comes with a four-page illustrated booklet with full details about the recordings and the re-mastering process.
