VAN HALEN – 1984 [Japan edition remastered – Forever Young series] Out Of Print

VAN HALEN - 1984 [Japan remastered Forever Young series HDCD] *HQ* - full
HERE

The recent VAN HALEN posts were intended to the Hagar-era only, but I couldn’t resist to feature here as well “1984“, from the same Warner Brothers Japan ‘Forever Youngremastered series.

Sure, Van Halen’s first six albums have been recently remastered (including “1984”) and available in the US & Europe, but this Japanese remaster is quite different.
While that USA 30th anniversary remaster (handled by Chris Bellman) sounds really good to me – this Forever Young remaster in HDCD is great as well, even better.

I mean, it’s a more ‘natural’ remaster respecting the dynamics from the original recording, with a slightly level-up gain but warm as a brand new vinyl LP.
The bass feels more in tune with the kick drum, and perhaps David Lee Roth’s vocals are more prominent, on par with the blazing rhythm guitars.

I don’t think this “1984 [Japan edition remastered – Forever Young series]” is for completists only… while the USA 30th Anniversary Edition Remastered 2015 is excellent for the iPod and regular players, if you’re lucky to own a hi-end system this Japanese version done with HDCD technology is a must.
A CLASSIC
