aaaargh!!!! This copyright protected cd's....

I can play it on my cd-rom or dvd-rom on my computer, but the cd has a little player in it which plays the cd's. But as the tracks are connected to eachother there is still 5 seconds of silence between the tracks... not enjoyable! :(

And if I try to play in on Windows Media player it has this annyoing "ticking" and "scratching"... that's the protection.

So I can enjoy it the most on normal cd players. There are several here in the house but they don't have a surround set like on my computer....  :/

I WAS RIGHT! I was right! You hear John Cleese say "Mandolin" two times when the mandolin is played!! Somebody thought it was the DJ saying this when we heared it on the radio, but it is John!

Why does Mike do this? A joke or a mistake? :D

The bagpipe sounds: they sound the same, although some pieces have been taken over by an acoustic guitar.

Ambient guitars: also sounds a bit the same. Although I think he uses his PRS for these bits.

The caveman: yes, there is a caveman in it!!! Well, in fact two!! Yes, you heard me right! I hear a female singer between it! The "singing" sounds exactely the same, although the sound has some effects over it (like TB2). But the female bit could be just the same singer only altered to a higher pitch. And I still don't know if this is Mike who sang it or somebody else. The female singer could be Sally. I don't know.

How does the bass sound at the start - does it sound real or does it sound too artificial?

yes Holland is happy! I also bought TB2003 today. The complete set and SACD are not yet available here.

I like it very much!!! Can't wait till I've got the house for myself to listen to it LOUD!

Man in the rain ----------> The bass sound sounds artificial in the beginning, but the real bass joins in further into the song. To tell you the truth I really haven't paid attention to it, but in the booklet there are some synthesizers listed for bass sounds. And the wall bass guitar as the only real bass. But most stuff in TB2003 is a real bass (to my ears).

Well, you can hear it quite clearly... I call it a mixing mistake... it should have been removed during the mix IMHO

no... i disagree Blue Dolphin. it doesn't annoy me in tb 1973 and i think it won't do it in the new either.
imho a breathing is not a mistake, just a proof that the musician is alive.

a sneeze would be much worse...
:D :D

Mike looks really sensitive when he breathes in on the TB2 concert, the camera is looking right up his nose from the guitar   :D

A breathing sound is ok in the mix, surely you're joking, Blue?
