My initial thoughts, listening on earphones: Around The World In A Day - Vocals quite dry, kick drum sounding very thick. Overall, I think the mix could have been balanced a bit better, but no ...

I don't remember reading much about this, but it looks like a fairly significant new book. I'm not going into it with great expectations, particularly having heard his interview earlier on the radio, ...
