- One album which is totally screwed is the Beach Boys' Sunflower. What an
- atrocity the CD reissue is! The original was the epitome of "mellowness", a
- superb mix with everything in the right place (one of the cuts is mixed in
- the Dynaco system of quadraphony). The CD is like having a mouthful of
- aluminum! Ugh!!
