Re-issue vinyl vs. the original pressing

BTW,many of the re-issues are not exactly cheap!Take a look at some of the offerings from Acoustic Sounds.Sorry,but for 30 to 50 dollars for many of the Jazz re-issues,I'm better off going to the Princeton Record Exchange,and finding originals,for ALOT less.A few pops don't bother me.

How about re-issue Vs RE re-Issue. Does anyone have experience with Vinyl
Re-issues on the Original Jazz Classics label - vs Analogue Productions from Acoustic Sounds of the same material on 180grm vinyl. Is the quality that much different to justify the difference in price $10 Vs $25 or more. I know it the AP was mastered by DougSax. Was the OJC a hachet Job ?

Any Comment

I think we can all agree there's no absolute rule, but there's a rule 90% of the time: original pressings from country where the record was recorded sound better.

You can try to fool yourself or argue yourself out of this, but the fact is that the key issue is being as close as possible to the original master tape at the time and place where the record was recorded. I've got about 10K LPs and this is my experience, in all genres and all eras, and it's the consensus among acquaintances who have many, many more records than I do. Sorry, but that's the fact.

I agree with Patrickamory.
