porcy62 Posted April 24, 2005 Report Posted April 24, 2005 (edited) John Lennon:Â Imagine (MFSL fresh off the presses!!) I bought this record (if you are reffering to the last MFSL), but I felt unsatisfied with the sound and the Yoko's remix, compared to my late italian analog issue, at the end I bought a UK original pressing, (at the same price of MFSL). I find the UK pressing more 'natural', richer, maybe a little less dinamic and definition, but it gaves me more joy of listening. I sold the MFSL and the italian pressing and stick with the original. How do you judge your pressing? Edited April 24, 2005 by porcy62 Quote

How do you judge your pressing? Yes, I heard about what you mention, but many feel MFSL did a really good job and I agree. I have not compared it to anything else, but I like it. It will have to do, as I do not plan looking for better sounding issues. I am commited to supporting new vinyl issues, if they do a good job. Sold my MFSL "Dark Side Of The Moon" and bought the 30 year anniversary issue.

Sold my MFSL "Dark Side Of The Moon" and bought the 30 year anniversary issue. Good choice. TDSOTM Anniversary Edition sounds great, and at good price, compared to absurd pricey original pressings. Some vinyl reissues are great: Sundazed, Speakers Corner, Analogue Production and Classic, love them. Quote

mikeweil Posted April 27, 2005 Report Posted April 27, 2005 This morning I recieved Cal Tjader's 2nd LP for Verve, recorded live at the Blackhawk, and it's some of the best Cal I have ever heard, and certainly his best jazz session. A shame this has not been reissued. Quote

A shame this has not been reissued. Mike - I picked up a near-mint copy of that very same Verve LP just a couple of months ago and I agree, it sounds terrific. It's my only Tjader LP. Quote
