Digitally remastered 2-on1 featuring the first two albums, from '72 and '74 respectively, by this popular American singer/songwriter. Packaged in a slipcase featuring extensive new liner notes. BGO. 2006. Review: Best In Class - BGO remasters - BGO produced perhaps the best remasters of Dan Fogelberg music you can find. Overall Captured Angel remains musically true to the original recordings and are so much easier to listen to than the USA versions. The USA CD Remix is OK but the guitar riffs audibly bite and require severe adjustments to make it palatable. It is over cooked. This is also true of the other USA remasters. I have both versions and find the BGO versions to be more enjoyable. This seems to me to be the case with nearly all of the USA CD remasters of Dans music. When you get to the guitar riffs they bite audibly. I don't have one I don't have to turn down. To me they are all over engineered to the point I am removing the USA remasters from my MP3 device and installing the BGO versions. Review: Five Stars - The sound quality of this release is excellent. The best since the early releases.

Dan's first two classics in brilliant sound...
I've always had a preference for the earlier works of Dan Fogelberg. This set contains his first two albums in the fantastic sound we have come to expect from the BGO label. Get it while you can.

As good as it get!
2 of my favorite Fogelberg projects. The remastering is very well done...

the original mix of Home Free is SO vastly superior to the '80s-era remix that it basically doesn't matter ...
Previous reviewers who noted the drop-outs or other transfer flaws throughout the middle of "The River" are correct, and that is frustrating to listen to; however, the original mix of Home Free is SO vastly superior to the '80s-era remix that it basically doesn't matter - it's far more important that we at least have that original mix now in the best form we can. These two, along with Captured Angel, are by far my favourites of DF's albums, and to hear them presented so well, flaws and all, is a blessing beyond anything else that could detract from them. Thank you BGO for releasing these, warts and all. This Dan Fan greatly appreciates it....

an essential remaster
i agree with the previous reviewer. the sound improvement is excellent. serious dan fans have waited 20 years for these cds to be upgraded. hopefully, all of dan's cd will get remastered, at least thru "the innocent age". thanks to bgo records.

Great CDs

A MUST HAVE!
A must have for any Dan Fogelberg fan who had these albums and now wants to update to CD. I love having them in one package on 2 discs with some of the original liner artwork.

Nice to hear it without the platter noise. Still good after all these years. Bought it only because, I only found out he had died, on same day that JJ went.

Terrific music!

So sad that he died too soon. But he produced many wonderful songs and makes you feel a love for life.

Great albums by a great artist who is no long with us

I rate Dan Fogelberg as being probably the best folk artist that has ever lived. I find him a wonderful writer of music. 'souvenirs', apart from a few songs is an exceptional album. shame he is now no longer with us!
