LP: Pixies,Bossanova: 180 GRAM Review: Good album - Arrived in great condition and on time good album a must for fans of the pixies. Review: Bossanova MOBILE FIDELITY VERSION - As usual if you're interested in this version you're already a fan of this brilliant album. Being a strictly 2ch merchant I cannot give insight into the sacd element of this hybrid disk, however the remastered cd represents a significant improvement on my stock versions (both original cd and vinyl). Now I know so of the recording techniques were somewhat unorthodox to get a specific sound to some of the instruments but despite my love of Bossanova I found it increasingly difficult to listen through my excellent hifi setup as the recording was badly flawed. With this (new) mobile fidelity version the soundstage is hugely improved. The separation spectacular allowing each member of this four piece room to carve out their element particularly Kim Deals bass. Also I believe it to be mixed better with Franks vocal lifted together with the other improvements removes that "dirge" element that soured my experience of late. I know there are moments I long to relive the impact I had when this magnificence first met my ears through a green Sharp personal cassette player, but that was more about hearing something new and powerful. This disc allows you to hear every ounce of drive, passion and subtlety of one of the best and most influential bands ever and enjoy it to it's maximum. In short it's worth the premium (particularly as the Minotaur version is not remastered).

One of the Pixies classics.
Great, great, absolutely spot on! To me Surfer Rosa is followed by Bossanova and Doolittle.... The best 3 Pixies, out of 4 studio albums. Not grunge, not metal, not...no labels...loosely rock, just Pixies! Black Francis' voice and the arrangements are just raw and so pure rock. Love Pixies, can't get enough of 'em. Get this if you want to get to know them after listening to Where is my mind (Surfer Rosa), this is just as good and can' t be missing from your CDs collection.
