Best Remaster CD of Holy Diver?

Your '85 version would be the first or second CD pressing, but the original mix.

ogogre-

for CD or SACD you might want to look into the SHM series. I have a fellow audiophile that collects these discs and remarks that they are better than the 80's pressings.

Got it!

If anyone is still paying attn., the 2005 remaster, the one with the 16 page booklet and an audio interview with RJD is amazing.  All of that nasty compression is gone, and the EQ is excellent.  The credits say the digital remaster was done by Gary Moore and engineered by Craig Goldey.

The 2013 one might be the same remaster or a different one, and it might be even better, but this is excellent.

Cool, where did you find it so we can partake?

It's all over "The 'Bay", so to call it.  I paid $15.99 including shipping for it new.  It is the CD that, if new, has a large red sticker on the front detailing the booklet, remaster, audio interview, etc.  It is not at all rare.

The mix is MUCH better than the original 1983 one.
