Pat Travers - 8 + 8 Best of '77-'80 (UK Edition)


Pat Travers - 8 + 8 Best of '77-'80 (UK Edition) - It's amazing how many Pat Travers albums (including U.S. pressings) sound so much better than normal pressings, many of them falling into the audiophile category by sound alone. This is, in effect, two old-style length LP's on one CD, and the sound is simply fantastic.

Let's start with the first eight tracks. These are the complete album LIVE! GO FOR WHAT YOU KNOW, one of those pivotal live albums I mentioned in the previous post. The remastering, though, is better than the sound of the original vinyl, and these eight songs alone make this album well worth purchasing.

The second eight tracks are a selection from 1977-1980 studio releases, and sound almost as good. If you like Pat Travers, or the blues, you'll want this one.
