Blast from the Past!, September 30, 2000
This review is from: Spaced Out (Audio CD)
I've been an Enoch Light fan since the early 60's. All those movie themes! It was fun listening to instruments coming from the left, then the right. When I saw that "Spaced Out" was on CD I got it right away. I still have the LP (why no liner notes on the CD?). The quality is just as good as I remember. My favorites: "Knowing When to Leave" (Bacharach), "My Silent Song" (Bach), and "Eleanor Rigby" (Beatles). The CD isn't very long (twelve 3-minute songs), but worth a listen. The price is great. Treat yourself to some first-class nostalgia!

4.0 out of 5 stars
Excelent Album but BUYER BEWARE!!!!, September 17, 2003
This review is from: Spaced Out (Audio CD)
As far as the record it self goes, this is a classic "now sound" release. Fat Moog synth, wordless vocals, the whole nine yards. I'm not sure what the other reviewer is talking about these being different recordings. Spaced Out is my favorite among the 30 or so Enoch Light records I own and this is the exact same album as my vintage Project 3 LP.
However, here's the problem, this CD was clearly mastered from an LP. While the transfer isn't terrible, you do hear typical record noise which is really dissapointing. Add in the "low budget" packaging and lack of licensing information, I have to question the legality of this one.
Still, you can't beat the price and if you don't want to take the time to burn your LP to a CD (or if you can't find a copy of the LP) this will do. Not an unpleasant listening expirence, but this album deserves better.

Super cool!, March 19, 2000
This review is from: Spaced Out (Audio CD)
I have hundreds of records from this time period and this one is in my top 10! Just what you need, classic tunes done with totally flipped-out arrangements that ping-pong back and forth across your speakers (look, it's stereo!). This CD has a cover that's as good as the famous Whipped Cream and Other Delights cover art, with way better music. I recommend you buy it now.
