5.0 out of 5 stars BUY THIS DISC QUICK!!!!, September 20, 2003

This version of JOHN LENNON IMAGINE was made by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, it is what is generally known as The Original Master Recording. MFSL has a great reputation for making only the finest sounding discs of classic titles, and this IMAGINE disc continues in that tradtion. The music on this disc sounds as good as it gets, the realism, the sound stage, and the vibrancy are all of such a high quality that you would swear that John was sitting right in your room playing. There is quite a bit of controversy surrounding this release, mostly having to do with what mix that MFSL choose to use in this release. The mix used for this original master recording is the infamous 2000 Yoko Ono mix of Imagine, and to some critics and die hard fans this mix was supposedly sacraligious. Let me tell you, I own so many different versions of Imagine, that it is really hard to say which mix was the best, or which mix should have been used for this particular release. But one thing is certain, Imagine has never sounded so alive as it does in this original master recording. The price of this item should not be a factor. A lot of love and hard work went into this release, and since this CD is going to be a very limited edition release, it would be wise for every Lennon fan to grab a copy right now while they are available. And I highly recomend buying it here at Amazon.com because the price is just right. Alot of other dealers are selling it for a whole lot more. So do not hesitate, buy this disc now.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection Made Better, August 26, 2003

This review is from: Imagine (Omr) (Audio CD)

This is the most amazing CD I've ever heard. Now that's saying a lot, but this CD is worthy of such praise. Granted "Imagine" is one of the best recordings in history, but the superlative sonic qualities of this are astounding. In summary, perfection made better. Did I hear anything new? No. But I heard things more clearly than ever before, and since its initial release a couple of decades ago, I probably have listened to it 100+ times. Normally I avoid "remastered" stuff. This CD easily is the best [$$] I can remember spending on recorded music. I wish I could give this 10 stars. I hope everyone can find time to put this on, settle into a comfortable seat, and listen in a quiet environment. I'm not a cosmic soul, but I'll admit the abovementioned experience produced an other-worldly state of mind. I'm in love with the CD again, in love with music again. How often does that happen?

Whoah! What a pairing of the chief Beatle's masterpiece & Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's impeccable sonic craftsmanship. Imagine is more haunting & evocative than ever! A classic just got classier. . .
