Sam here again.Is new remastered vinyl fake vinyl?


I grew up on vintage vinyl and I loved that sound, however I haven't owned a turntable in 20 years and the only reason I don't get back into vinyl is because new remastered vinyl is FAKE vinyl and I knew it from the first listen. Granted new remastered vinyl has a lot less surface noise than 1st press vinyl, however the sound is gone and it ain't no accident friends! Just have a listen to a first pressing of is this love by bob marley straight from YouTube to avoid manipulation of the audio.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxy-th7Lkko&t=5s   now have a listen to the remastered version of the same song.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCFazxbK6hc  Clearly the 1st press from 1978 has that very distinct sound I remember however, if I didn't know the remastered version was vinyl I would never know because that distinct sound is not there? And you can find hundreds of examples all with the same results. It looks like the vinyl isn't the only thing being played here friends? Compared to the 1st press the remastered version sounds like mono.

The only reason to buy new vinyl is for the nice packaging.  That’s the main reason records survive.    
The source material that goes onto records these days is generally not the same as in the heyday of vinyl.   It’s digitally remastered like all the rest then just put to vinyl to sell rather than streamed.  
I find that remastered records usually have a much cleaner sound and the individual instruments stand out more.
Apparently the industry figured out a long time ago what consumers want is low noise and no tape hiss, no pops and clicks. The buying public doesn’t care about analog sound or anything like that.
I'm sorry  but when you have an orginal pressing of a record, that's the best.Look you can have a 1969 Led Zeppelin 2 , look how many pressing were made and how,many remastered were made .Jimmy Page swears by his new pressing and others say it sucks because it was digital remastering. It's all about the money.Plus they have critics paid off to telling you this copy is the Best.In the end it's your choice how many copies of the album you want.

Sorry, Sam, but I’m just not buying it. Because if you really "loved that sound" then you would simply go out and buy it. From your local record store. From discogs. Or if you REALLY love that sound then from BetterRecords.com but any way you slice it, if you really do love that sound, then you would buy it. Not simulate it. Not carp about it. For sure the last thing you would do is refuse to buy a turntable over some made up nonsense about new reissues. Which we know is nonsense, and not because reissues are so great- they aren’t- but because you have no idea whether they are or not because you haven’t owned a turntable in 20 years!  

So how dumb do we have to be to believe a word you have to say about it???
