Rolling Stones remasters


Noticed yesterday that there are several titles that are remastered by "the guru", Joe Gastwirt. Anybody heard these?
kira
Are these remasters available at record stores, or through specialty mail order? The Stones CD's that I have are about 30 - 40% lower in volume than other cd's. They are also tinny sounding.
Pops, in the blah, blah blah you referred to, is there any mention of an MP33 (or something like that) system or process used in the remastering?
Pops is correct, in 1999 Virgin released some limited edition "album replica" Cds in cardboard sleeves to simulate the albums, and these were remastered in 1999 by Bob Ludwig. Unfortunately if you try to buy now they are very hard to find, sold out. BMPnyc the reason your CDs sound tinny is because these are the old ABKCO remasters
I have a question concerning the CD's packaged in the album like sleeves. Are they different from the CD's in the jewel cases that are also labeled remasters?
7P62, yes there is a big difference, the older Stones albums from the 60s and 70s were remastered by ABKCO in 1987 and are dissapointing sound quality. The limited edition cardboard album sleeves are new 1999 remasters by Virgin, Bob Ludwig. Big improvement in sound quality, but they are out of print so if you see one grab it. I went to my local Best Buy last night and they had 1 "sticky fingers" left, all other album/CDs were gone. I do have 1999 "some girls" sounds very nice! I also noticed an import greatest hits album called "jump back 1971-93" which has new 1999 remaster it is single CD with about 18 tracks, but cost $23, ouch! I may still buy it and bring a jar of vaseline with me when I check out......Sam
