So, I was looking earlier MoFi releases today. They did Nevermind, Goo and some Judas Priest. Also a Red Hot Chili Peppers, but on CD...
A long long time ago. From what I gather the Sonic Youth one is reviled, they neutered it.

Definitely Maybe is an analogue recording, right?
Yeah, and honestly, an audiophile version of Sonic Youth is kinda pointless. I was actually quite surprised by the Judas Priest (like 3 records).A long long time ago. From what I gather the Sonic Youth one is reviled, they neutered it.
Pixies ones are pretty good. People seem very up and down about the Weezer ones but I got the blue for cheap and it's not bad.I wonder when the last time something from within my lifetime, 1983 DOB, was released by these brontosauri? Its going to be one of the 2 billion Dire bloody Straights remasters isn't it...
Pixies ones are pretty good.
Probably the only MoFi I’m most bummed to have missed out. I haven’t heard them though.Pixies ones are pretty good.
Yes. But with fuck off huge amounts of digital compression added during the mix.
True, time flies! I thought Weezer was still in print, are they not? I've heard some people prefer the standard releases though so I don't know if that's a great example.again hardly recently..
Yeah. I wonder how many 90's and beyond albums are even worth it.

Nevermind was on vinyl. But it’s crazy expensive now. I think Priest may have been vinyl too?So, I was looking earlier MoFi releases today. They did Nevermind, Goo and some Judas Priest. Also a Red Hot Chili Peppers, but on CD...
Beck might be the most recent in terms of original album release date? I’m mad I missed out on that one.It is but mixed reviews, I actually quite like it personally, and although still in print it was originally released a good few years ago now.
Also its almost rote that this criticism is met with "Weezer/REM/Sonic Youth/Pixies" which is very few albums none of which were originally released recently and all of which combined make a less than negligible proportion of what they do.

Yes... but...hot buttered soul....Dang...I'd love that one. That album rules.
But cmon Craft.....do some non-jazz titles. please SOMEBODY DO IT. Give us Black Moses or something...
Oasis is supposed to sound dirty!Tonnes. Oasis, as much as I love them are the antithesis of an audiophile act, I don't want to hear their albums neutered.
Didn't they just do great reissues of those Hayes titles?Yes... but...hot buttered soul....
Also, I will buy eastern sounds in seconds
They also just did a reissue of Eastern Sounds haha (that's what the VMP pressing is from and they did their own black version I think?). The Black Moses US pressing got mixed reviews from what I heard from friends. The EU pressing is meant to be better (pressed at a different plant).Didn't they just do great reissues of those Hayes titles?
Alright, let’s make a list of records post 00 that would be great then. Grace was mentioned the other day (ok, pre 00), some Radiohead would be awesome, Nick Cave, Father John Misty, Arcade Fire...That or love is hell. They were both early/mid 00s weren't they? In terms of original release date of the mofi version we're a long time waiting...
Beck Midnite Vultures (Technically 1999...hah)Alright, let’s make a list of records post 00 that would be great then. Grace was mentioned the other day (ok, pre 00), some Radiohead would be awesome, Nick Cave, Father John Misty, Arcade Fire...
I've got each of the craft reissues. They are good and trend toward very good -- but fall shy of great. (Sound only, the covers are terrific and Black Moses packaging is true to the insane original)Didn't they just do great reissues of those Hayes titles?
