T Bone Burnett Says CD-quality Sucks
Accomplished producer Burnett lashed out at CD and [iTunes-quality] downloads in this interview:
“We’ve been fighting digital sound since it came out twenty years ago…music’s gotten to a place that’s harder to listen to. It’s stepped down from tape to digital to compressed digital, so people are now listening to a Xerox of a Polaroid of a photograph of a painting.”
So what does T Bone recommend? Interestingly, its not vinyl (or other analog media). Rather, he focuses on DVD-A (?) and other re-res digital formats.
T Bone has produced “Raising Sand” (left) and many other hit recordings.
