so turn it up

was reading the insert on an album I bought recently. In little letters on the back flap amid the credits are the words:


THIS MUSIC HAS BEEN MIXED TO BE PLAYED LOUD SO TURN IT UP


How often do you see something like that?

I rather liked it. I don't know why. Could be that I'm going slowly deaf (from playing other music loud). Could be that I like to feel music flow all around me.

But I think I liked it because the author was thinking of me, the listener. A little 'this is the way I like to listen to it--this is how you will enjoy it most.'

And maybe I was just a little impressed that -Wow!- this guy cares how you listen to the music.
