Divine Light: Reconstructions & Mix Translation - Bill Laswell [音乐] 豆瓣
Carlos Santana / Bill Laswell
发布日期 2001年7月31日 出版发行: Sony
超級有心人/好事者 Bill Laswell 重混版。此碟收入 Santana/McLaughlin 原作中之 A Love Supreme, The Life Divine, Naima, Meditation 四曲。取得原錄音分軌母帶後重新混製,耳界聽野,豁然大敞,光明照見,種種寶樹,一一蓮華,鐃鈸清脆,貝斯肥美,宛如昨天才出爐的全新錄音。(見文末音質試聽對照)
就要高呼無上功德時,卻見 Laswell 老兄胖手大腳遮天蓋日,任意添加持續長音,更有甚者,在最強代表曲 The Life Divine 中竟將原版 Santana 一段迷幻吉他及隨後 McLaughlin 整段靈魂出竅的獨奏一刀剪掉。嚴重混淆視聽,誤導後世聽眾對作品的認識。
此碟音響的確神奇,不可不試,它提供我們對原作本來可能音響仙境之幻想路線,但輯後音樂內容則應小心對待。

Contrast clause: The source of this torrent was uploaded in August 2008 by overendwatts (thanks a lot!), who took it from another site (torrent 210150, still on the tracker). The original source is a bootleg CD made from a very nice-sounding sbd, which however has one major problem throughout: a crackling noise that appears with higher levels, mostly in the drums and Santana's guitar. This is not too difficult to remedy with the appropriate software (ProTools LE with various pro-level plug-ins). In order not to degrade the audio unnecessarily, I applied three different levels of filtering and reassembled the music from the three versions according to my ears, always choosing the one with just as much filtering as necessary to remove the noise. I manually removed a few minor glitches and, lastly, did a pitch correction (from 38 to 48 cent on CD 1, 52 cent on CD 2), the original source running slightly flat.
This is an amazing performance (check out Mr. Cobhams drumming!) which well deserves a little polish.

Oneness: Silver Dreams Golden Realities [音乐] 豆瓣
Carlos Santana 类型: 拉丁
发布日期 1997年6月16日
This is the first Carlos Santana solo album. It features members of the Santana band as backup, however, so the difference between a group effort and a solo work seems to be primarily in the musical approach, which is more esoteric, and more varied than on a regular band album. The record is mostly instrumental and given over largely to contemplative ballads, although there is also, for example, in the song "Silver Dreams Golden Smiles," a traditional pop ballad sung by Saunders King.
