[I thought a lot of these picture discs were 10,000, whatever they feel they can sell in the current market. I don't necessarily trust them either. Who and what is there to limit them?]
Yes, I do play my picture discs and some of them play well. However, picture disc is not the right platform for such a sonically pure version as Sonjay Prabhakar's remix of Sound and Vision.
Some will be buying this picture disc to listen to: because it is the ONLY tangible way of purchasing Sonjay Prabhakar's remix, unless you pay more for the promo CD edition. I think it wasn't intended to be released to the public as it was only produced for advertising purposes and as a result is very short (1:50), there is a repetitive longer version.
That said the experiment paid off reducing the song to Bowie's voice, Hopkin's voice and the piano works beautifully. I have to say, for this song, I wouldn't want to hear it on a picture disc. Nor do I want to hang it on the wall (though the Man Who Fell to Earth image is classic, so maybe I should reconsider - perhaps it's better than a photo . . . ).
The below is taken straight from the davidbowienews www:
"Reworked from the original tapes by Sonjay Prabhakar for Sony’s Xperia™ Z smartphone advertising campaign. Sound and Vision 2013 is a beautifully haunting reimagining of the song, re-worked from the original stems by remixer Sonjay Prabhakar. By stripping away much of the original instrumentation to just leave Roy Young’s plaintive piano, Mary Hopkin’s backing vocal and the lead vocal, the song takes on a new reflective resonance." -

Edited 8 years agoDoes this sound absolutely dreadful to anyone else?
Side A's not so bad (a bit flat), but side AA's practically unlistenable. Loads of buzz and distortion. Like a badly compressed MP3 playing off someones phone.
