Foreigner/4 Original Standard CD

Ted Jensen is a super famous mastering engineer who has been said to have worked on the most works in the world and has won many Grammy Awards. FOREIGNER’s smash hit “4” will be released. The identity of this work by this world-famous super famous engineer is the CD “82545-2” released in 1993. It was released as part of the “Sterling Sound” remaster series and is a meticulous digitization of a mint quality version that is now extremely rare. The key to this work is this “Sterling Sound” and its exclusive engineer, Ted Jensen. “Sterling Sound” is a mastering studio based in New York. Todd is the chief engineer and an eternal popular artist who has worked on a huge number of albums from the 70s to the present, such as THE EAGLES’ “HOTEL CALIFORNIA”, GREEN DAY’s “AMERICAN IDIOT”, Norah Jones’ “COME AWAY WITH ME”, etc. Moreover, he also demonstrated his skills in the CD remastering business. He has also upgraded a huge number of works. This work is the masterpiece “4” polished by such a popular Todd. In fact, he is a very important person who is indispensable to FOREIGNER history, and this work is not just “a masterpiece mastered by a celebrity”. In fact, Todd has a deep connection with FOREIGNER. They achieved astronomical success with “4”, but it was Ted who was appointed as the engineer for the next work “AGENT PROVOCATEUR”. After that, it was Ted who continued to support the FOREIGNER sound without change, even though the members and producers changed frequently, such as “INSIDE INFORMATION”, “UNUSUAL HEAT”, and “MR. MOONLIGHT”. For such Ted, “4” was the only work of FOREIGNER in its prime that he did not touch. In other words, this work is not just a remastered version, but “the sound that should have been redone by the person who should have been in charge (Ted)”. The great album “4” is depicted with “the sound that should be there”. The sound of this work is extremely natural and makes sense. With normal high-quality CDs, the focus is on how to reproduce the “sound of the analog master tape”, and in fact, the SACDs produced by MFSL have a fairly mild and analog sound. However, this work is more flashy than that, but feels “authentic”. While many remastering engineers work on their own without knowing the band’s opinions, Ted is the one who created the sound after “INSIDE INFORMATION” together with the band. His level of understanding is equal to that of the members…no, even more so, and it makes sense that the sound polished from that perspective is “authentic”. Of course, even though the sound pressure is high, there is no sense of forced processing. In fact, Ted is so popular that he has both merits and demerits, and some of his works have been criticized as loudness wars and are said to be the culprits. However, this work is not like that. After all, this work was released in 1993. Before the sound pressure war broke out, the freshness of the master tape, which has not yet deteriorated over time, is delicious. In fact, compared to the current remastered CD, there is no distortion at the peak, no sense of jumping out, and no crushing of details. Although the power is equal, you can enjoy a much more beautiful and deep sound. We have reprinted and introduced various high-quality CDs in our shop, but this work is a little different from usual. It is not just a high-quality sound, nor is it a challenge to analog masters. It is a piece that has been reborn as “the way it should be” by the most appropriate person in the world, going into the history of the band FOREIGNER. A rare masterpiece that is more original than the original version. A remastered version by famous engineer: Ted Jensen has been released. Ted is the person who created the FOREIGNER sound after “INSIDE INFORMATION” with the members, and you can enjoy “the sound of ‘4’ as it should be”.
