Full Range Posted November 23, 2019 Author Share Posted November 23, 2019 18 minutes ago, Rocketfrogs said: Just spinning a sound comparison between my much played 1973 Vertigo swirl pressing (6366101) of 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath' and the 2016 'remastered' (RR1 2695) Warner Bros. issue. What a joke. The Warner Bros sound is flat and lacking dynamics and punch. The cover art is also filtered and flat. Even with all it's crackles and pops my 46 year pressing destroys the remaster in every way. I tend to favour first pressings or similar era reissues when feasible Some remasters do sound better but they tend to be the ones that use recognised engineers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame ignorance and naivete... and the same on my part. Maybe my parents only had a poor quality AM radio when I was young. Yeah, that'll do it. Me. Can't get into Dylan, Van Morrison or Springsteen. Great lyrics, but those voices, especially the first 2. Have tried to like them. Every 10 years or so, l try again. But nah. All they make me do is search for razor blades. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
