Hi everyone, When I asked Dean for time indexes for his complaints about the level of Dee's guitar in Prelude, he gave the following: 204 seconds 214 seconds 222 seconds Those translate into the following: 3:24 3:34 3:42 Upon listening to Prelude, there's no searing guitar there, but comparing it to other versions of Hope that I have I must say there never was. So, instead, I took them as the following time indexes: 2:04 2:14 2:22 And while Dee does have some searing guitar parts in there, they're no further hidden in the mix. They're the same volume they had been in other releases. So I listened to all of Prelude and found no problems with Dee's guitar at any point in the track. Then I went and did my critical listening comparison for the entire disc. My review will be posted in a few minutes. Dave
