Reconciled & Into The Woods (Remastered)
by The Call
supported by 5 fans who also own “When I Get Bored”
There is no argument that these 2 releases were The Call at their best. The reissues sound great but are not technically remastered. Without getting too audio snobby, let's call them sonically enhanced by increasing the output levels. Where this package misses is the lack of liner notes and extra tracks (or demos) that likely exist and wouldn't have impacted the final price or disc space to include them.

The Lost Tapes (New Studio Album)
by The Call
supported by 4 fans who also own “When I Get Bored”
Awesome compilation of quality tracks from "the vaults." It is a shame some were not included on their respective releases originally. Sadly, and like the 2-CD reissue of Reconciled and Into the Woods, more extensive liner notes would have made this release all that much better. Still, great to hear more from The Call.

The Rags of Absence 2017
by Bill Mallonee (Jan. 2017)
supported by 4 fans who also own “When I Get Bored”
I appreciate the ambience and space that Bill creates and how his lyrics provide a palette for reflection. The electric guitar work sits prominently in the mix but not in an in your face way that and electric guitar can be at times. The slide work, for me, is alluring -- not quite haunting -- and gets into your skin. I'm still listening and taking it all in, but this is what spawned my purchase. Thanks.
