REMASTERS' DAY by McLEOD

Começa a ser normal as reedições remasterizadas, de tal modo que já nem damos tanta importância ao facto e, por vezes perdemos algumas boas horas de diversão. Os clássicos são sempre os mais requisitados para estas novas edições digitais bem tratadas e recuperadas das fitas originais, que, em boa verdade, estão a caminho da sua demise. Nunca é demais rever-mos esses momentos, e quanto mais não seja, para passar o legado aos mais novos e fazê-los interessarem-se por boa musica com um som mais actualizado e polido, mais próximo, ou muitíssimo próximo da realidade e da verdadeira intenção dos artistas naqueles tempos em que a tecnologia era por demais limitada.

Assim sendo, tomei conhecimento esta semana de duas edições, ou melhor, quatro, porque numa representa uma edição tripla de quatro discos fundamentais para um bom apreciador de rock pesado. Deep Purple e o seu monstruoso “Made in Japan” e Led Zeppelin e os seus 3 primeiros discos de originais; Led Zepp I,II, & III.

Sobre estas bandas está tudo dito e gasto com tantas palavras, por isso, saboreiem estas maravilhas reconstruidas das fitas originais e passem umas boas horas a rever ou a conhecer mais daqueles que deram a força ao rock por esse planeta fora.

McLeod Falou!
