Red (Taylor's Version) [VINYL]

Great cd love all Taylor Swift music

Bought as a Christmas present for our Granddaughter coming up to fifteen years old

Turned up promptly my daughter happy with it

Records arrived in perfect condition (I spent hours play testing the whole thing as I was anxious ordering records online). Songs are amazing as ever and I discovered some new ones as physical music is the only way I will sit and listen to a whole album.Only note is make sure you have a record player that can play records at 45 rpm and not just the 33 that is typical of LP albums like this. Also make sure you have enough anti static/plastic sleeves for 4 discs as the card ones they come in scratch the records over time.

It takes time to listen to it all and get an idea, there are 30 songs in total, the sixteen of the original album, in addition to the six of the deluxe version and the eight 'new' "From the vault", not included at the time.And listening to it spun, one song after another, let's face it, is practically impossible, with its 130-minute duration, without doing anything else.Listened to in several sessions, however dedicating a lot of time to Taylor Swift and her music, perhaps more than it objectively deserves, the work is still commendable: the operation itself is interesting.Taylor Swift, returns to her songs, recorded nine years ago (the original was released in October 2012), when she was 23, and reinterprets them, reinterprets them, relives them as a thirty-two year old, with the personal and artistic maturity of today .Taylor removes what is useless, lowers the volume, sings with greater passion and less formalism, and tries to make sense of old and distant emotions and feelings for her, trying to make them become more 'collective' without losing their personality.She also does it in concert, you will say, indeed any artist who reinterprets their songs live transforming them (think of Dylan, an unrivaled master in this art), but in this case, unlike concerts, in which 'is an inevitable dose of topicality, of contemporaneity, every song is here and now, in this case Swift wanted and could.I do not know the original, but this Version fascinates me with its return to the roots.

Great album by Taylor, which covers genres from country to pop, with major pop hits such as '22' and 'I knew you were trouble', with one of her best songs 'All Too Well' finally getting a 10 minute version.The 2 cds work perfectly and came well packaged.

My wife is a massive Taylor Swift fan and we have a collection of record that this fits nicely in. It is a 4 vinyl collection so good for the price but the records are quite thin and the sleeve of two of the records came with slightly damaged corners. I would suggest that this was from manufacturers and not the seller as the outer sleeve was in perfect condition.

Taylor knocks it out of the park once again. Wonderful collection of songs. Well wrapped and fast delivery. Five stars.
