Thoughts on the new pressing of "Bookends" lp from MFSL


Listening to it now. Has greater extension but will have to directly compare to a one of my early copies to understand how the digital step has or hasn’t affected the SQ in any meaningful way. The siblance on "s"s, seems more pronounced/noticeable.

"Bookends" has always been a favorite of mine in terms of it's influence in my life.

Always dreamed of one day stumbling across a mint mono lp.

I have three copies of Bookends. The original pressing, a re-release and the CD which I just had to have. I started streaming a couple of years ago and the high res version on Qobux sounds great, but not as good as the original 1968 release. Yes it’s quieter.  Yes it’s clearer, but the slight changes in the mix bother me.  I say he same thing about the Beatles albums that have come out recently. I just had to buy them too.😁

I enjoy my copy of “Bookends” by Sundazed.  No surface noise and the music comes through my system nicely.  Can’t compare it to different pressings for this purchase was my first attempt at including this particular album in my collection.
