![]() Rating: - DEFINITELY SUPERIOR TO THE 2000 U.S. DOMESTIC REMASTER"Romantic Warrior" has gone thru several audio iterations since debuting on CD. The domestic CD, which was the 2nd remaster of the album, is pretty good. However, the benchmark disc is this 2001 Sony Japan-only DSD remaster, derived from a DSD-SACD release in 1999, now long out-of-print. The DSD-processing delivers quite a bit of additional clarity, and especially much better bass, than the U.S. remaster. The DSD was also re-pressed in 2006. Both pressings have ...

It's indescribable, other than very well thought out, maginitive, and pleasing to the senses. You cannot go wrong, unless you are not a true fan of music. My favorite tracks are Romantic Warrior, The Sorceress, and The Duel Between the Jester and the Tyrant. There should have been a movie built around this cd! It would have scored major points! Well, at least with me!! Rating: - The epitome of experimental jazz/rock fusion!Probably the most talented fusion group to come out of the seventies; each musician is a master in his own right. Clarke's "The Magician" is the craziest song I've ever heard and the rest of the album is a genuine masterpiece. Rating: - Best Recording Ever Made"Romantic Warrior" was not the best recording ever made. Probably. I haven't heard them all yet. But it is definitely one of the best. And if ever someone were to ask me about Jazz-Rock Fusion... I would siimply hand them this recording. It is flawless. It is exuberant. And it is timelessly delicious. But it is more than just extremely good jazz and rock. There is a pharmacopia of musical styles enough to please the classical ear as well. To really get the most out of it, I suggest ...

Al Di was God. Just try and keep up playing air guitar. The era is gone but the music lives on. Rebirth: Check out Vertu w/Stan Clarke, Lenny White and Ritchie Kotzen. RTF lives. |
