AnonymousIt surprises me that people seem to think these remasters are master tape transfers. As someone who listens very closely to sound quality and has spent untold hours cleaning up vinyl rips and dealing with various weird quality rips found online, I am certain that these (at least the ones I've heard) are vinyl transfers with noise reduction used to take away vinyl surface noise and 'gloss over' pops and crackles rather than carefully remove them, as is the case with all those Creel Pone pirate reissues.

Anyway, in my observations hardly anyone seems to listen to music really closely anymore, they're probably in the next room doing something when they play a cd and therefore don't hear the finer details of sound quality. Frequently when I buy a new cd reissue and discover some fairly obvious flaws (and ones that I could have fixed on something like Cool Pro in little time if I were putting out the cd, but these labels seem to not be bothered to spend the time on), looking on-line for comments and contacting the label to complain, I have always found that I am apparently the only person in the world to have noticed and given a shit;-)Please note, Drago, I am NOT at all having a go at you, but at the people who reissue stuff without the proper care and attention. Even Gil Matthews of Aztec Records, who is generally renowned for producing great-sounding remasters - sometimes from vinyl sources due to lack of surviving master tapes - occasionally misses a loud vinyl pop, or in the case of their reissue of the first Ticket album, manages to fuck it up altogether but seemingly didn't notice (and yes, I complained about that one bitterly to Aztec, with whom I had previously had a good relationship - they seemed to not care and to be pissed off that someone wasn't happy with it, rather than acknowledge that they had screwed it up). Certainly, playing with Billy Thorpe a lot, Gil has probably lost part of his hearing, but that is no excuse to put out flawed remasters except if the only surviving copies are in terrible condition to begin with. (In the case of Ticket, the previously available bootleg cd actually sounded way cleaner, if not as punchy as the Aztec remaster - they could have just taken the bootleg and given it a good EQ boost and it would have sounded infinitely better than what they ended up putting out.)Whew!

Thanks for reading that lengthy rant. Now back to life. Many thanks for this Drago!
