Whitesnake - Unboxing the solo albums

Οι τρεις προσωπικοί δίσκοι του David Coverdale ("White Snake" 1977, "Northwinds" 1978, "Into the Light" 2000) αποτελούν την βάση της συλλογής "Into the Light" που θα κυκλοφορήσει (σε... εξαπλό cd και σε διπλό βινύλιο) σε λίγες ημέρες (25 Οκτωβρίου 2024), με το δελτίο τύπου να μας δίνει όλες τις λεπτομέρειες:

«On the original recording of Time & Again, David sang while playing on the electric piano, however an accident occured where both his vocal and the piano were printed onto the same track.

The whole band told him “That’s the take! You have to keep it!”

At a later time David discovered he wasn’t entirely happy with the electric piano part, and the recording mistake was uncovered. With deadline pressure mounting, and there not being the time or technology to correct this, David had to live with the result, not being able to listen to the track in 40 years.

With technological growth in the last 5 years, the Hook City Studio team learned of an audio restoration software that could “unmix” and separate different instruments printed together in a song.

Trying every open source software available, and years of failed attempts, we eventually found the perfect balance to make David’s voice stand on its own without artifacts, thanks to the incredible assistance by AudioShake.

This allowed us to create two new versions of the song, replacing the electric piano with a string quartet as seen in this video below, and another soon to be featured with the release of “Into The Light” box set.»
