Amy Winehouse LP Sound Quality

I too think it's nostalgic sounding. I had downloaded a 256 kbps copy from amazon. Which was bright and loud, a typical radio mix. I got the domestic vinyl version in a local store and to me it is much better sounding than the red book copy. Eric you are right, it gets better sounding after the first track. I wonder how much the sales go up with every story of misbehavior in the media. She just may be crazy like a Fox. Heck one of the last stories said she was making a new album.

And ten years later...

Yes, I agree with the OP.
I have the US Universal Republic vinyl version and as soon as I dropped it on the plate something sounded off to me; it's as if it was mastered from an mp3 file.
I haven't compared it to the CD yet, but I looked the edition up suspecting that this was a repress issue and wondering if I should just stop purchasing records from the same company; the research led me to this thread.
It is not more clear to me now but I hope it will be more clear to you.

It's too bad. I was so excited to get her "Back to Black" album, my first vinyl purchase ever. I quickly learned that all recordings and pressings are not created equal. Terrible studio production.

The only Amy lp I own is the 2015 re-issue/re-master of "Frank" on UMe/Island that I played recently. Yes, it is obviously a digital recording but umm, (frankly), I enjoyed it. Not perfect but I don't hate it.

I am with @koegz on this one, sounds really good on my system the music/songs are great and as usual the album sounds better than the CD. With all that said I still like Frank better.
