Direct Cut Metal Mastering vinyl - the best I've heard


Not sure if Parlophone puts this much effort into all their albums, but this one rates as one of my best pieces of vinyl to date...

Ian Anderson Plays the Orchestral JETHRO TULL (0190296688270)

  • with the Frankfurt Neue Pholharmonie Orchestra
  • Conductor John Ohara

The pressing is dead quiet, and the instruments are crystal clear,

  • I’m not completely satisfied with the sound engineering, because instruments you expext to play a more front and center kind of role are presented more to the back of the resording and it lacks bass

None the less, Ian Anderson is his superb self and accompanied by other musicians of a similar calibre make this album a very enjoyable listen.

If you like "TULL" its well worth adding to your collection

So my question - is this a one off or is Parlophone vinyl just that good?

Cheers - Steve

Not to be obtuse, but how is this different from the direct-to-disc recordings in the 1970's by Lincoln Mayorga?

Cheers!
