All wheels rollin'

4 Stars
Posted Thursday, January 31, 2013 by Jeff C - Australia The van on the cover may have lost a wheel but the music trucks along the highway with all tyres getting the traction on the road. This album is sonically very satisfying and the vinyl is nicely pressed and pretty quiet. The style of the music is kind of laid back but also has grunt so it stands up nicely to repeated plays. Mark has surrounded himself with some fine musicians and the tunes include a fusion of traditional folk, blues rock and highway rockers. The only other Knopfler solo album I have is the 2004 Shangri-La which I rather like and just like that album this one is also meticulously crafted.

More like "Refreshed" than "Resurrected"...

5 Stars
Posted Sunday, August 26, 2012 by Tony McCarty According to Bob Ezrin, his source for revisiting this album was a digital copy of the original analog tapes. The original sessions were recorded on 16-track, meaning certain instruments and vocals were "paired" and could not be separated out. This was also an issue when the Double Platinum album was being cut; Sean Delaney could do little to remix the Ezrin-produced songs. So the basic tracks on Resurrected are the same as the original album, but with greater clarity, more full bottom end, and a few added "sonic touches" that makes it stand out from the original. It sounds great! Instruments and vocals have more "air" around them and it has a more expansive, "refreshed" sound. Packaging is first rate. The album cover is the original painting offered by Ken Kelly. Inside is a color fold-out of the final Destroyer album cover with album notes by Bob Ezrin. The vinyl is dead quiet and includes the original "Bogart" Casablanca label. All 70's Kiss albums should be refreshed like this!
