Peter Gabriel

So

Outstanding Sound Remastering!!!

Review Score:

(10/10)
The last time I listened to So in it's entirety was on tape in my old '84 Buick around 1990 during my long college years. Since my tape's demise in 1990 I have never re-purchased the cd or tape until now (13 years later). Now I drive a car with a great sound system and drove around all day listening to So today. The crispness of the low and high frequencies, the clarity of the sound, the tightness of the texture all make this remastering job exceptional. As I stroll down memory lane listening to Peter's cerebral lyrics, I can't help but be distracted by the quality of the sound. Even playing the album louder than I would normally, rendered me with goosebumps on my arms because it just sounded "So" good.

The music is sampled in 128 bit/96 khz which sounds very good in my 12 speaker Harmon Kardon car setup, 5.1 home computer system and 5.1 home audio stereo system (Althought the album is not SACD the 128/96 sound is phenomenal). I may have to by the SACD version as well as an SACD player (some day).

As for the album, it is a must if you like Peter's music presented in clean crisp sound.
