Foreign Tongues - New Rolling Stone Album (vinyl)

Haven’t heard the latest but agree on over compression on Hackney making it almost unlistenable, I would much rather listen to the Jimmy Miller produced albums when they were the greatest rock and roll band.

A truly top notch recording has eluded them.  That would be a worthwhile endeavor at this stage IMHO.   Take their best material and give it top notch treatment, not just a remastering, which may or may not even help. Build on what you’ve done and go out with a real bang!  Use as many guest artists as needed in the process. 

I haven't heard this album yet but I received the Blu-ray boxed set today.

I had the same feelings about Hackney Diamonds until I ripped the Blu-ray. Regarding the SQ of their other albums,  I would say that they have all been released in SACD and/or Blu-ray. The last redbook release I listened to was the remastered box set of Tattoo You, so I've basically lost touch with Stones redbook material and quit vinyl over forty years ago.

I would appreciate if someone could help explain exactly what they find lacking in the production of the Stones' recordings. Personally I find them more than acceptable. I forgot about a month or so ago I acquired a Japanese remastered version of an album that was never released. "Could You Walk On The Water" remastered in mono, I found it excellent. It's a 44.1k recording which morphed into "Big Hits High Tides and Green Grass".

I think sound quality for  most including in some cases more recently digitally remastered versions ranges from OK to pretty good.   Most are neither top notch nor horrible.  
 

However the high res Qobuz version of the new album did strike me as subpar.  Dynamically compressed and washed out overall.  Not something I am dying to hear again.

That's why I don't stream anymore. I much prefer rips, much better quality.
