gold discs - doors


Any opinions on the gold discs from Audio Fidelity of the Doors? Compressed, any better than the run of the mill discs, etc.

Here are some Japanese releases to consider:
The Doors WPCR-13280
Strange Days WPCR-13602
Waiting For The Sun WPCR-13603
These are not gold CDs but sound very good.
Caveat; I have not heard Strange Days from this series but own the other two.
It's listed on the Audio Fidelity site: Morrison Hotel AFZ 037
If I remember correctly, the complaints were about some kind of clicks or something like that. I don't really know firsthand since I've never heard this particular version.

I don't believe DCC made Soft Parade or Morrison Hotel although I believe they planned to before unfortunately going belly up. I always felt Dunhill Compact Classics (DCC) was underrated compared to Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs (Mofi or MFSL).
IMO: Their releases were much more consistent in quality than Mofi.

Doors DCC Gold CDs:

The Doors GZS-1023 1992
Strange Days GZS-1026 1992
LA Woman GZS-1034 1993
Waiting For The Sun GZS-1045 1993

Doors Audio Fidelity Gold CDs:

Morrison Hotel AFZ-037
Soft Parade AFZ-038
Didn't Audio Fidelity release two? I have Soft Parade, sounds pretty good. Also owned all the DCC Doors releases which also sounded pretty good.
BTW: DCC had Soft Parade scheduled for release just before they went under.

Have read many complaints about the other Audio Fidelity release, wasn't it Morrison Hotel? A lot of criticism of Steve Hoffman on that one. He usually does a great job.
Did he re-master all of the Audio Fidelity and DCC Doors CDs?

Also have a complete box set with all CDs in mini-lp covers that sounds pretty good.
I like the new remasters with all the extras but haven't really compared sound quality.
Audio Fidelity only did one - "Soft Parade" AFZ 038.

DCC did all the other Doors albums.

The DCCs are splendid, but the Audio Fidelity album has had mixed reviews.
