Why on earth is "Hounds of Love" an ADD disc, yet "The Sensual World" is AAD???

Better yet:  Why isn't TSW DDD?

Don't get me wrong; it's a wonderful-sounding CD.  But I always
figured Kate would take advantage of the miracles of modern recording
as much as possible.

Of course, you miss the point entirely, Dear Joseph!  For one thing,
Hounds Of Love says ADD on the disc and AAD on the outside, so go
figure which is accurate (this happens with CD labelling all too
often -- I don't know why we bother with SPARS codes and all this
misleading "digital mastering" hoo hah anyway when none of it means
a wad of spit in terms of sound quality.  I have DDD discs that sound
far worse than some AAD ones.  But I digress.).

Also, didn't Kate say that after the digital mixing of The Dreaming
she would never do digital again?

TOTALLY UNRELATED DEPARTMENT:
	Anybody hear the new Tack>>Head thingie called "Friendly
As A Hand Grenade" yet?  It ain't available around here... yet...

/Joe sez:

	Why is _Hounds of Love_ ADD and _The Sensual World_ AAD?

larry... sez:

	Oh, joe.  Don't you know a typo when you see one?  Presumably
	she mixed _Hounds of Love_ at East Wickham Farm, and that's an
	ANALOG studio.

	Dem's de breaks...

larry... also sez:

	Videos???  No VIDEOS???  What will I have to complain about at
	the BushBash if there are no VIDEOS???  Needless to say, I have
	them all (including possession of the Interview tape that showed
	up at the KateMas Party - why did she transpose "Under the Ivy"
	into her pre-Wuthering Heights baby voice?  I liked it, but still,
	though I have to admit it's easier for *me* to sing up there).
	If you like, I shall bring the videos, a VCR, and a 19" color
	TV to boot if necessary.
