This is an outstanding record from a fantastic pop band. The quality of this pressing from the Abbey Road Half Speed Master series is truly impressive. It's definitely a great addition to any music collection.
On the lower end, it's quite light, but that's my sole critique. Not a single bit of noise on this record, even during the quiet moments, making it an absolutely fantastic album to have. Elbow's complexity truly warrants a full orchestra, and it elevates the album to new heights. Simply stunning.
Some tracks shine more than others under the symphonic makeover. Honestly, this album just doesn't hold a candle to the original double 45 RPM version. It's a bit light on bass and has some peculiar mixing moments, with vocals sounding distant. You can spin it any way you like, but it doesn't captivate me like other symphonic albums. It's a must for Elbow collectors, but it's not the powerhouse it could've been. Everyone else should probably track down the original 45 RPM double album.
Audio is amazing! It's got such a wide soundstage, and since it's live, I'm not sure why some folks are saying it's not good. Maybe they've got a bad pressing? Mine is great.
