I was a little surprised about the comments made about "Bringing It All Back Home" since I have had this SACD of a while and didn't notice this problem. I must admit that I usually listened to it in the truck.
I got the disc out and listened to it again taking notes at the same time.
My observation: both Subterranean Homesick Blues and Outlaw Blues sounded tinny. There was no real bass and even the resonance of the guitar body seemed thin.
She Belongs To Me was better. Instruments had more natural timbres including a bit better bass.
Love Minus Zero sounded very good. Better than any of the tracks up to that point.
On The Road Again through It's All Over Now Baby Blue all sounded good.
I do think as a whole the recording is low on bass, but I wonder how much if it has to do with the mikes, and technology employed on original recording. There isn't anyone playing bass or drums.
I went to the record rack thinking I had a copy of the LP, but somehow I missed that one, so I cannot speak to the LP v SACD comparisons.
I don't think that it is a lot worse than many older recordings.
