      Oddly enough, I just listened to "Fish Rising" the other day; it's been years.....   Anyway, I thought it could certainly use some remastering;  has that sound that a lot of CD's released in the 80's have;  too much upper-midrange/treble, giving it a kind of tinny sound (of course, the album has an overall dense sound, with lots of multi-tracked rich sounds).  The very high frequencies need to be emphasized, along with the lowest frequencies.  Still, the original recording may be the true culprit here:  like some of Todd Rundgren's albums in the early to mid-70's, just too much overdubbing, too many effects on instruments, which leaves things muddy in the end.
