dont bother with the SHM releases....they are smoke and mirrors...the original lp is great...as is the cd reissue that came out in late 90s...both are available very cheaply....
Best sounding Supertramp's "Breakfast in America"
I am looking to replace a used vinyl copy of SuperTramp's "Breakfast in America" I have read a few customer reviews on Amazon which claim the Mobile Fidelity Gold CD is disappointing In addition, the 2002 remastered version has gotten mixed reviews I also read that the 2005 MLPS issue of this album was the best. What is MLPS or mlps??? Need some advice on replacing this excellent album.

It's not been made obvious. One of the web sites selling the new SHM-SACDs published the genesis of the sources used, and in most cases they were tapes from Universal's vaults in Japan. One would expect that the CDs have the same basic model. One should not expect that they are made from the original analogue masters that are in vaults outside Japan. Regards, |
You can find SHM CDs here: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/music/index.html SHM stands for Super High Material. Which is Japan speak for the improved products used in the manufacturing process. SHM-CDs are compatible with regular CDs but they are expensive. |
