Born to Run and Darkness on the Edge of Town
Springsteen’s 1975 and 1978 classics have been remastered before, but Ludwig confirms that these are indeed new versions of Born to Run and Darkness, not the ones that appeared in their corresponding box sets.For an album that’s been remastered as many times as Born to Run, what’s left that can be done? According to Ludwig, it starts at the very beginning: „If you listen carefully to the opening four notes of the piano and harmonica on ‚Thunder Road,‘ they always sounded a little ’shaky‘ to me. The Plangent Process magically fixed this problem; it sounds as it would be played in real life.“
Don’t expect a BTR overhaul, though. By the time of his 2005 remaster for the 30th Anniversary of Springsteen’s masterpiece, Ludwig had it nailed to the point where he received „the ultimate compliment“ from Springsteen: „When I got to remaster Born to Run for the anniversary box set, I saw Bruce backstage, and he told me that he was listening while driving in his car and that he heard Born to Run as he’d originally intended it to sound for the first time!… So I wasn’t about to change the approach. Yet, to me, the new transfers gave it even more life than before, and thus there are some subtle differences to the way something would be EQ’d. There would be less EQ now, as the originals sounded that much better from the get-go.“ The same goes for Darkness on the Edge of Town.
