after losing my cassette and having this as the only available replacement, i didnt listen to this album for years til i found the old pvc vinyl. if youre thinking about buying the "remastered" version, dont.
-
As some people alluded with later remixes/remasters of Rock For Light, the audio was pitched up by one-half step.
To fix this, I use Exact Audio Copy, encode it lossless and then use Audacity to reduce the speed by 6.5%. I was able to match the speed of the vocals by comparing to the original mix, which fixed the issue. I found this tip on an Amazon.com review of this release.
The reggae-only tracks are not affected by this issue.
