David Bowie is releasing a 30th Anniversary 2CD release of the album ‘Young Americans’
that features new 5.1 Surround Sound complete with bonus tracks.
Producer Tony Visconti has mixed the work from the master tapes to 96khz high
definition digital audio. He said, “Mr. Bowie is front and center, but the backing
is now spread 360º with Mr. Vandross hovering over your left shoulder for most
of the album. John Lennon’s six string acoustic is almost entirely in the right
rear speaker on ‘Across The Universe’ and you just might hear a comment from him
when the song is over. What really brought it home to me was how great David’s
vocals were, and a lot of them were live takes with him standing in the same room
as the band at Sigma Studios in Philadelphia.”
