dmz Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Looks like all his albums made with Epic are being re-mastered and available in a box set http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2012/06/30/legacy-releases-stanley-clarke-the-complete-1970s-epic-albums-collection/ Not seen on Amazon yet - the chappie on no treble says no new tracks - whilst strictly true - some missing tracks from the vinyl version of "I wanna play for you", namely "Off the planet" - a piccolo bass tour de force (!) is on there - worth the price of entry alone methinks - plus the tracks on that particular album are now in the same order as the vinyl as I remember it - showing my age here ! One thing I'd like to ask - on the later album "Future Shock", the track "Heaven Sent" on the CD is quite a different mix from that of the vinyl version - and vastly inferior to my ears. Anyone know if you can get a CD that mirrors exactly the vinyl version ?? Maybe a Japanese version perhaps ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmz Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 Doh ! - I did of course mean the Time Exposure album and the track "Heaven Sent You" - is the original vinyl version of this track available available on CD somewhere ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2112 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 [i]I Wanna Play For You[/i] seems to be the only record I would really revisit of that lot. The sound quality on Stan records is good though, so I can't see what a remaster is going to do for the tracks sonically. 'Remaster' is usually a term for boosting the bass and making the whole record louder overall so it loses it's dynamic punch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHUFC BASS Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Rock 'n' Roll Jelly with Jeff Beck is a great track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
