I heard from MoFi and they confirm that Fillmore East is produced from analog tapes, so I ordered it along with MoFi's Kind of Blue and Analog Production's Phoebe Snow. Can't wait, but gawd these thing are expensive.
Allman Brothers at Fillmore East, which one?
There are two recent releases available at Music Direct, one by MoFi that must be their Silver edition, meaning original masters were not involved, and one by Mercury in which the original masters were transferred to hi res digital and cut at Apple. Anyone have experience with either of these releases?

I think I remembered MF saying the MOFI "Kind Of Blue" was "Kind Of Blah".You need to actually read the article. The title was to catch reader's attention. He gave it an 11/10. http://www.analogplanet.com/content/mo-fis-kob-kind-blah |
mofi: My bad. Thanks. I just compared my (only two copies) of this lp with one song from each at the same volume. "Hot 'Lanta" I have the aforementioned "beige" label and the Classic re-issue. The difference between the two is stark! The Classic: more perceived energy, spacious soundstage, better defined bass. It sounds more like a live show. The "beige", I will sell as soon as possible. |
