If you really like this recording, find an original pressing and pay the premium. Every single Doors recording is far superior in the original version.
Question about The Doors Soft Parade Remasters
Hi All-
I'm looking to buy a copy of Soft Parade and am looking for the vinyl, a single copy no extras. I noticed that most shops have two copies and I can't determine by Googling what the difference is between them. There is this one: 1) Soft Parade 180g Remaster SKU:WBLP98649 ; UPC: 081227986490, $24.99. Remastered by Bernie Grundman & pressed at R.T.I. Label: WB Rhino
and a second: Soft Parade 180g 50th Aniv. Remaster, SKU:ELKLP85133, UPC: 603497851331 $21.99. Remastered by Bruce Botanic, Label: Elektra
Both prices from Elusive Disc. I've read on the remastering on Google and seem to be under the impression that basically you wouldn't hear/notice a sound difference from the remastering. But, I can't find any info about the differences between the two pressings. It seems that Grundman and Botanic were collaborating together during the remaster but each have their names associated with different pressings. I don't get it.
Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between the two, is one better then the other?
Thanks for you replies-
