Vinyl Back in Black Review


How do the different recordings sound and the quality of the pressing.
This is not about if the original sounds better than the reissue recording, but if it is worth purchasing them on there own merit.
I myself purchase Supertramp - Breakfast in America. To me it sounds muddy and not as clear and crisp as I think a reissue should.
Anyone else listen to these releases.

While I don't have the Supertramp LP you mention, I do have quite a few of the "Back in Black" series and find them excelllent in sound quality and production.

I agree that a reissue can only be as good as the master used to create it, so it is kinda a crap shoot from album to album. I guess I've just been lucky.
Hevac1,

I have the following Back to Black reissues:

Allman Brothers-Live at Fillmore East
Elton John-Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Steely Dan-Gaucho
Van Morrison-Tupelo Honey
Cat Stevens-Mona Bone Jakon, Teaser and the Firecat, Tea for the Tillerman

All of these are very good but the (2) standouts are Tupelo Honey and Gaucho.
