I followed up after my post last night and compared the MoFi release to my original early United Artists release as I hadn’t done that when I received my MoFi copy. I stopped doing that awhile back as I have a number of times been disappointed that the original pressing sounded better than the remaster. That wasn’t the case with Eldorado but I will say in response to your question that they definitely did turn up the bass somewhat from the original pressing. I will concur with an earlier post that the sound of the bass was most likely from the original mastering and carried forward from the original tapes. I don’t hear it to the point of being boomy on my system and it doesn’t reduce my experience but it is definately more noticeable.
I will also say that I have noticed the bass more prominent on a number of the remasters I have received over the past few years compared to my original pressings. An example of increased bass is a MoFi 45 rpm copy of Dire Straits first album that I have and when compared to my original WB copy I prefer the bass on the original pressing but I wouldn’t say the MoFi version doesn’t sound great. I have always thought that Dire Straits albums were some of the best sounding albums out there. To me I thought they added too much bass to the remaster. I would assume that a number of people want to hear more bass but I prefer a more balanced recording.
When something is already perfect why do they want to change it?
