 | Equinoxe by Jean-Michel Jarre
Buy new: £9.98 / Used from: £8.74 Mesmerizing sound quality, especially for a 1978 recording. The 1997 remaster of it is absolute ear candy.
|
 | The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
Buy new: £6.98 / Used from: £4.98 No big surprise it being featured here, since Alan Parson has been the one sitting behind the mixing console.
|
 | MCMXC A.D. by Enigma
Buy new: £9.88 / Used from: £2.31 Michael Cretu is a classic piano player, a composer, a songwriter, but above all, he is a flawless producer and highly qualified sound engineer, and his talents are being avidly displayed here!
|
 | Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Buy used from: £4.50 This HDCD remaster (High Definition Cd) is the perfect example of how much a good mastering can offer to a 1973 recording. Makes you recall the warmth and space of the vinyl sound.
|
 | Aerial by Kate Bush
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.62 Kate Bush, An ingenious producer herself, certainly knows how to make a difference. All audiophiles will find their earthly heaven in the warm and spacey sound of this impeccable music production.
|
 | Year of the Cat by Al Stewart
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.50 Alan Parson's impeccable mixing again. So pleasurable to listen to, snd one of the best remasters around!
|
 | Nightclubbing by Grace Jones
Buy new: £6.18 / Used from: £4.45 The answer to how they managed to make this one sound today as fresh as it did in 1981, is in the production line. I can't imagine how a remastered version of it would sound!
|
 | The Visitors by Abba
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £2.45 With a very thick and elaborate production, Abba moved on into the new decade. What was to be their final album was also their best music, as well as their best sounding effort.
|
 | Madonna by Madonna
Buy new: £9.98 / Used from: £2.94 Ight be a little louder than it should, however I cherished the liveli, vinyl reminding sound of it. Warner crew certainly knew what they were doing while remastering this one.
|
 | Tres Lunas by Mike Oldfield
Buy new: £6.58 / Used from: £5.17 Probably the best one coming out of the chillin out-inspired period that mike oldfield went through, but certainly the most pleasurable one for the ears.

Listmania!
