One song to remaster.

I really need to have a copy of The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker, in better sound quality. If I could get one song remastered, it would be this. What would y'all pick?

The Ballad of Dorothy Parker (DJ Design Remix) is much improved (sound quality wise).

Good remix, too.

Baby You're A Trip ('81), underrated gem, one of my favs, would love to hear those screams in full blast quality.

Funny that song sounded soooo good on the Box O' Chocolates bootleg CD. Different mix, I'm figuring.

You guys need Parade and SOTT in "Homemade Deluxe Version".

They're out there, they're FLAC'd from vynils, and with the proper EQ,
you can bring back that huge low end and 3-D stereo that we experienced in the eighties.

A insane amount of dynamics an details were lost on the pathetic Warner CDs.
it's a crime against music.

The Ballad of Dorothy parker is in lo-fi because that is how it was recorded.

From prince vault:

The whole song sounds somewhat dull and murky because of a technical problem. The console for the newly built home studio arrived from Los Angeles as a skeleton, with the wires hanging out and all the parts in boxes. Everything was hooked up, but there was never any music ran through the console, before recording commenced.

While installing there was a loss of power in the house. The console had one power supply for the positive side and another for the negative side, and unbeknown to technician Susan Rogers one of the power supplies didn’t come back up.

Rogers noticed the music sounding flat, but didn’t want to ask Prince to stop recording so thing could be checked out. Not until after the day long recording session Rogers found out what the problem was. However Prince professed to like the recording.
