Crosby, Stills and Nash Gold CD Mastering: A day with our gracious host. PICS @ #119

Missed the photos. Hopefully they will be back.

I hope being vegetarian doesn't disqualify me from someday attending one of these events.

 

Got this yesterday in my email from Elusive Disc concerning the release of Audio Fidelity's CSN - S/T along with Gary Weaver's "Dream Weaver" gold cd.. Looks like November 15th is the release date. Both of them indicate in the links below that they are in HDCD, is that a misprint or what? Can we get a clarification on this? I thought Steve has disregarded HDCD, Is the right?

This gent just got back into town (literally), and I agree - worth it for the burger!!

You may.

Gracious is the word. Made me feel right at home. I would live there if they would let me! I would empty their trash every week. In fact, I offered to do that very thing after lunch - but in the interest of complete disclosure I have to report that Stephen did it himself.

Not lost on me either. Still hard to believe that I had the incredible good fortune to be part of this experience.

At this point, still not sure what details I should publish here, (obviously can't share any pics either right now), so I won't be going into any detail, but I think I can safely/cryptically say that one of the MANY highlights of the session for me involved the David Crosby gibberish between "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" and "Marrakesh Express". Hopefully more to come?

 

great time! great burger!...who could want for more! glad you guys got the opportunity to see a master at work...I would have loved to be there.

 

missed them as well...patience.

 

you can have the veggie parts.
I'm sure someone will take the burger...

 

Do you mean you never noticed it before?

 

I would love to hear Steve master If I Could Only Remember My Name as well. I think it would be a good seller.

 

Love it! Hope the photos clear legal.

 

Right on, a great cheeseburger is always worth any trip!

 

I really envy you guys whom could attend the mastering session. Anyway I heard that Audio Fidelity Premium Club members will receive a complimentary burger in the next batch of discs (CSN).........

 

I want one of those burgers here in Ohio, when I sit down to play Steve's new CD, do you think that they ship those burgers "long distance"?

 

Is Stephen Marsh related to mastering engineer Richard Marsh?

 

What's all that stuff above the bacon?

 

Clearly the correct solution is "all of them"...

So was that edited in after a copy was made? I guess they never actually cut any LPs from the masters?

 

That makes sense (assuming it isn't on the 45).

 

I'd love a chance to attend one of these sessions someday. Cheeseburgers, tape boxes - it sounds like music nerd heaven!

 

Looking forward to this release as well.

As a side note: Amazon has this release listed as an SACD?

If any album deserves the SH "touch" it's this this one as it's all about the human voice. Don't know how I'm going to pay for it given all the box sets I need to get this season, but I'll find a way.

Kitchen24 is a gas! If food were sex, it'd be their meatloaf

 

Excellent Steve! I respect your originality and craftsmanship! Also Elusive Disc has the CSN "couch album" Audio Fidelity release as being HDCD, is that a typo on their part? I remember you discontinuing that procedure months back. Can't wait to hear! It's been a "Long Time Gone", Long Time Waiting for this gem!
