When you use some of the more modern recording devices and Pro Tools, when you get into the technology, you are aching to get into some territory.

Sometimes, reissues can be revelatory, or put the original record in a different light, but those are rare.

It's hard to make music knowing that it's not going to be received by the listener in the way that it should be.
