After thinking about which version of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers "Live at The Fillmore 1997' I should buy for two year now, I pulled the lever on the deluxe CD box. It's sounding wonderful.

@slaw: Speaking of Jackpot Records LP’s Steve, in 2022 they reissued an album I love:
- Shake Some Action by The Flamin’ Groovies. Produced by Dave Edmunds in 1976, the recorded sound is far from audiophile in quality, but that was intentional. The album was intended to recreate the sound of the British Invasion, and Lord almighty does it! Musically as well as sonically. Even the album cover picture captures the look of mid-60’s England. The Groovies tastes are very specific, limited to 1950’s Rock ’n’ Roll, Phil Spector mega-Pop, and the 1960’s British Invasion, The Beatles and Stones in particular. My favorite Garage Band album by my favorite Garage Band (that label not used in the pejorative sense, it’s meant as a compliment). The thread on the Hoffman Forum (I just now read it) regarding the album is worth reading. The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales, where Edmunds recorded his own first three albums (engineering the first two, and playing and singing almost all the parts). Dave is an expert at creating the recorded sound The Groovies were after, and the album is pure joy! One of my Top 10 albums. This reissue was mastered and the lacquers cut by Kevin Gray from the original analogue master tapes.
