Hello Artyom and readers,
Thanks for the response. Just went back today. All Companies should put the mastering info on every format. Period. Take care.
[…] is a box-set simply titled “Rod Stewart“. This box-set features his first five albums and some of his best […]
Probably mastered from CD files and utterly worthless for anyone actually interested in listening to them. But hey, it’s a pretty box.
We don’t actually know that. If that info was available (it wasn’t) I would of course have included it.
please record companies,stop selling albums that are already available everywhere in ex/mint condition (thrift shops,record shops,discogs,ebay…) and START putting out unreleased or very hard to find or very expensive vinyl PLEASE (Lenny Kravitz albums [5 is still unavailable on vinyl guys!!!],The Cranberries albums…nearly everything from 1990 to 2009)
you guys must understand that there are also YOUNG people buying vinyl,and not only crap like Eminem,Jay-Z …or the 35268th reissue of Bob Marley’s Legend (which is a masterpiece but) which is available in every corner of this planet on vinyl ALREADY!!!
Richard, I can’t say anything about the masters for MoFi’s Rod Stewart reissues but they used a first-generation copy of the master tapes for “Seeds of Love” and “Songs From the Big Chair” by Tears For Fears.
I assume an analogue first-generation copy will always be better for vinyl production than any digital transfers – and I have a gut feeling that this box set will be cut from a digital source.
Mofi didn’t have the original masters. The old gold cd I have, supposedly was an original master. Who’s pressing them? Analog or digital files?
Thanks.
Bit off topic. But does anyone know if the soon to be released cd box set the studio albums 75-03 will contain the remastered albums only available as downloads so far with the bonus tracks?
Pointless, I think. “Every Picture Tells A Story” and “Gasoline Alley” have just been reissued by Mobile Fidelity. There are still plenty of copies floating around. I doubt that this box set will beat the usual excellent quality of MoFi reissues.
On the other hand, I would be glad to see “Atlantic Crossing” and “A Night On The Town” both of which have never been released on heavyweight vinyl.
