Title: Sounds like a vinyl "needledrop" mastering to me
Review: I'm pretty disappointed in this 2012 Rock Candy re-issue/remaster.To me it sounds like it came off an LP - I can hear what sounds like vinyl surface noise in spots.God only knows what was actually used as the source tapes for this - unlike other remasters I've picked up in the last couple of years, this one makes no mention of a good starting place like "the original master tapes"; it simply doesn't make mention of the source at all (not a good sign).So after listening to this I will assume it is from an LP, or some kind of multi-gen copy that has been no-noised and had artifacts added. I guess they did not have access to something with better sound (?).The booklet is nice though.
Is this product review negative?
