Finally listening to my Beatles remasters on a proper sound system. Incredible.

"She's Leaving Home" by The Beatles




This is the mono (re: superior) version. If you haven't heard The Beatles in mono, then you haven't heard The Beatles.

"Too Much" by Sufjan Stevens




The first two times I listened to this album I hated it, but I gave it a good, solid listen in the car today and I am totally on board now. Great album. (Though I still think it would have been better if he had done it the old way.)

"Holidays" by Miami Horror



"Jesus" by Dom
