If, like me, you already own the original vinyl album, then you won't be dissappointed by the remastered CD. "Solid" sounds just as good as it did when it came out in 1974, albeit with a bit more punch and clarity (although not quite enough with "Light My Light" - a track that suffered from the same lack of punch back in 74). The remastering has succesfully brought the overall sound up-to-date while taking nothing away from the performance or atmosphere of the original album. I'm not a fan of bonus tracks so was pleased to see just the one included here. "Over Blue" (the B-side to "Sad Go Round") is a fairly standard rocker with a far too many synth overdubs for my liking; fortunately it's a short song. Overall, "Solid" is a fine album performed by three top musicians: The Groundhogs. After listening to "Solid" (or any other Groundhogs album for that matter) the only question left to be answered is why the music press continue to omit Tony MacPhee from their all time top guitarist lists? It's a mystery to me.Read full review
Bought as a gift for my partner who loved the album in his youth and still loves it now. Has managed to stand the test of time, every track is pure gold!! Very strongly recommended.
Very good value.
