It is a record of unique appeal, bringing together both the sublime and the outrageous in one bubbling cauldron. Leader Kim Mitchell's laconic vocals, biting lead guitar work and crushing riffs make for some of the most compelling and enjoyable music to have ever been birthed by a North American rock group, including the work of fellow Canadian uber progmen Rush. Produced by Terry Brown (Rush, Klaatu) with pin-point accuracy, High Class... is very much a product of art over commerce. Review: Greatness abounds - Ok so this would be a review on the 2011 Rock Candy remaster of the High Class In Borrowed Shoes compact disc...AMAZING! They did a really nice job on this.... Kims guitar playing Terrys Keys, Mikes Bass and Garys drumming all stand out far more than they do on the original CD releases...no freakin' contest boys and girls! Also very nice is the booklet with a lot of conversation with Mitchell and Terry Brown about how the whole thing went down. Hearing this again remastered for the first time was very close to hearing it the first time on vinyl...lots of details are brought out to be heard separately in all their glory. This my friends is a job well done and if anyone out there was as impressed with this band back in the day should seriously invest in these new remasters, to me they are well worth the $ involved here! That coin drop at about 2:40 into the song Gravity ( for those who remember it ) is astoundingly clear....just saying... Everything is way less murky ...everything...Kim plays tons of really nice acoustic guitar I never really heard until now! Also included are some nice era photos of the band live and one particular shot of an ad poster for the exact show I was first exposed to Max Webster at that a friend downloaded to some RUSH tour listing site and is actually given credit for on the back cover of the CD! I have that same poster..we got them at a local "head" shop the day after that show...I think we were picking up papers or screens or something that day maybe or a copy of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers comic book? Sam talked the woman working there into giving him the poster in the window then as we were leaving she ran out with another one and gave that one to me...except for the screens and papers I still have all that stuff...hehe. Anyway...get these Rock Candy Max Webster remasters and enjoy them..I sure do! Review: their best album in my opinion - from the opening power chords of "High Class", the sweet electric piano of "Diamonds, Diamonds", great weirdness of "Gravity" through "Oh War", and ending with "In Context of the Moon" - this is an amazing album and even more so given it's their 2nd album. The remix/remaster is really really top notch with much of the clarity and definition balanced with tone matching the vinyl - much more pronounced bass lines and punchier drums really make it sound great. Max has always been one of the underrated bands anywhere - hopefully bringing the reissues back will bring more attention to their quirky genius. ## Images ![High Class in Borrowed Shoes - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619Rg0yBSJL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greatness abounds *by A***N on June 3, 2012* Ok so this would be a review on the 2011 Rock Candy remaster of the High Class In Borrowed Shoes compact disc...AMAZING!
