Decent sounding Pretenders album?

I've got two Pretenders "Greatest Hits" type CDs and IMO they both sound pretty bad.

A new CD has recently been released "Best of the Pretenders/Break Up the Concrete", a 2CD set which includes their 2008 release and a greatest hits compilation. This is listed as remastered. Has anyone purchased this or heard it?

Would appreciate opinions on sound quality. Thanks!

Point taken, Metralla. Remasters are not guaranteed to be better. They should be, if done right.

Cheers.

I definitely agree that remasters frequently offer no improvement thus the original post on the 2008 release "Best of the Pretenders"?

I have the first four albums in original vinyl and they sound great. I also have the "Cuban Slide" bootleg from that era, off a soundboard. The original lineup was amazing, especually Honeyman on guitar. You should look for that on Bit-T share sites.
