So people keep raving about the "Mickboy Remasters", I havent heard them. Whats all the fuss about? Are they noticebly better? |

Some are better than others. TSMR is awesome. "From Rags To Excess" is kind of hissy sounding. |

I know that he's remastered most of their albums. And I hear that he just remastered some recent live shows - the Aragon & Tower Theatre shows
Has anyone heard those?

I'd be *very* interested in hearing some of his other stuff.
The great MRD8 very kindly sent me Main Street Revisited and Only When It's Frozen. Main Street is wonderful. Very well done. Only When It's Frozen has a few songs (most noticably "Mother's Little Helper" and "Satisfaction") that are in too wide a stereo sound. Apparently his re-master of Goat's Head Soup is also incredible.
I'd love to hear what he'd do to live shows. I've been trying to remaster live stuff from audience tapes and it's very difficult to get the right balance. I have a few remastered cuts from Ft. Lauterdale I downloaded- "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" is crystal-clear. Not sure if that's Mickboy or not.
What does his catalogue consist of, currently?

SavageYoungXyzzy-the coaster review web site has the Mickboy Tower mp3's. Is that ftp site where you got the f.l. remaster. If it is they are mine not Mickboy's. I also uploaded Tower, and parts of Orpheum and Wiltern. They are in a directory called Remastered. I should get Mantasack to change the name to 'swillb remastered' to avoid confusion between mine and Mickboys. Enjoy.

I haven't heard that Mickboy would've remastered any recent shows, so I doubt that he has. His catalogue at the moment looks like this:
studios:
-Satanic Remaster (TSMR)
-Only When It's Frozen (Aftermath+other 60's stuff)
-Dancing So Free (GHS)
-Main St. Revisited (Exile)
-Get What You Need (LIB)
-From Rags To Excess (B&B)
-Short and Curlies (a great remaster of IORR)
-Mean Ol World (Jagger+Red Devils blues session)
Lives:
-Earls Court (-76)
-L.A. Sunday (-75)
-Very Ancient Thank You Kindly (-72)
-The Nicaraguan Benefit Concert (-73)
-Completely Square (MSG 27.11.-69)
Yes, he is a wonderful man and does incredible job. I just hope that the Stones get to hear his stuff, too.

Mickboy indeed did remaster three Licks tour shows...the Aragon and Tower theater shows and the San Diego arena show...the Aragon unfortunately has the speed problem(too fast) but the Tower sounds amazing...as most of his stuff does! I just got his remasters of Layla and All Things Must Pass too...more incredible stuff...and his Led Zeppelin IV is better than Page did those tracks from the master tapes!  |
|

Wow, I got those Licks shows from Mickboy too, but I didn't know that he'd remastered those! I thought those were the regular ones that circulates 'round here, too.
And yes, his Allmans, Layla, Zep and Harrison sure are awesome! |
