Dweller, you noted
I also recall that one spot of a tune off Genesis' Wind & the Wuthering has something that sounds a bit like a slow static discharge in the middle of an acoustic guitar passage on every single copy I ever purchased, import or domestic. That one must be in the master tape, but I never got a digital copy to see if it was edited out. Another point of detail to explore sometime.
That's why we do the audiophile thing, I guess - to find all the joys of music.
Happy listening!
I purchased "Are You Experienced" special edition, audiophile vinyl, numbered edition, etc. about 20 years ago and never played it until this year.There is an impassible spot in one song; A bridge from one groove-side to the next.Made me laugh - I have clear vinyl RYKO copies of LIve at Winterland and Radio One from maybe 25 years ago or so. One of them (can't remember which one now) has what sounds like the same fault. Haven't played it on my current rig, so can't confirm if it's actually a bridge. Have to pull them out and run a test.
