For me its the first or very early LP's of: Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South" Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer" and, Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO
on this pressing "Comfortably Numb", the soundstage spread is remarkable. There is nothing I'd change. The warmth, the presence, the way it is presented as a complete anthem...WOW!
Tonight: Son Volt- Straightaways- phenomenal reissue, really great sounding record, and their first 3 records are some of my favorites ever. Any band. Donald Fagen - Nightfly, original pressing, damn good Steely Dan, Royal Scam, original UK pressing
Good to here from you The warmth I hear from DSOTM & The Wall on these latest (2016) re-masters in conjunction with all of the fine detail is pretty remarkable!
The solo in Comfortably Numb is in my top 5 of all time and that reissue sounds epicly large and wide. I had forgotten that The Wall won Grammy for best engineered that year. I remember skipping school to get my copy the day they released it and I must have put 100 spins on it the first month I had it
Thanks,Slaw Funny, I still have an older copy of Dark Side and need to try a copy of the reissue. Wish You Were Here is a great reissue as well. Meddle is good but just not nearly as well recorded as the others but the vinyl is really clean.
