Steely Dan's "Two Against Nature" on vinyl?

Just what we need, more mediocre reissues from Classic. I can hardly wait.

Thanks so much for the information. I'm glad that I never found one of the fake ones, and I look forward to one day getting the real McCoy from the boys themselves. I know that WB and DF are not Two Against Vinyl!

After reading the above comments from yesterday, I went home last night and listened again to my copy because I thought maybe I missed something. I have listened to this copy at least 6 times before.

SORRY guys, but mine sounds GREAT! It has NO surface noise and is ultra quiet. The dynamics are quite good and the vinyl is near perfect. Maybe mine's just an anomaly, but it is REALLY good....

I never knew that Steely Dan wasn't involved with this release. Wish the sale of this had put a few bucks in their pockets...I did pay ALOT for the tickets to see them at Red Rocks though.

thanks for the input, not to dish on this disc, I'm going by what other's said not actually listening to this disc
would love to hear something with less digititis

being that Steely Dan are such perfectionists their digital masters cut to standards that even a vinyl master from that would sound good

I have issues with the cd master, the dvd-a is slightly better

West of Hollywood is far too bright/shrill on the snare drum. I recall Roger Nichols needing to fix the master (see note below (gotta love google)
I thought Becker and Fagen had lost the top end of their hearing based on the mix

see Nichols story on this

The vinyl does sound good even though it was sourced from a CD. To my ears, it sounds better than the original CD release. I'm glad I have a copy of it. I was aware of the lineage when I bought it upon the initial release. I
recommend its' purchase if you happen upon a copy. There may never be an official LP release.
