Review: Simon & Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water stands as a timeless masterpiece, effortlessly blending diverse musical styles with poignant lyrical themes. From the iconic title track to lesser-known gems like 'Keep the Customer Satisfied,' each song is a revelation of Simon and Garfunkel's musical evolution and collaborative spirit. The album's rich sonic details, highlighted by subtle remastering, brings out the instruments and vocals out like none other before. Bridge serves as both a reflection of its era and a timeless testament to friendship and musical innovation. As Simon & Garfunkel's swan song, it resonates with a poignant, bittersweet charm that transcends generations. This edition is released on Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's limited numbered special Hybrid SACD. Consider this the best digital version possible that has ever been released.
Review: Bruce Springsteen's celebrated debut album returns to stores, this time in a "hybrid" remastered form, which features both regular and "super audio" versions. Released way back in January 1973, the set announced the arrival of "the Boss" as a future great, received warm reviews (at the time, Rolling Stone critic Lester Bangs highlighted the dexterity and social commentary of Springsteen's lyrics), and is now considered one of the greatest debut albums of all time. It has certainly held up well, with Springsteen and has band delivering a mixture of bluesy rockers, semi-acoustic treats, surprisingly funky workouts, and songs that still sound as fresh and potent as they did half a century ago.
