Fleetwood Mac - Rumours

I 'm looking for a better/best remastered CD (redbook)version of this. I must have a very early version of this which sounds a bit flat & restricted in the frequencies.
Any recommendations??

The more modern versions are a lot hotter and probably sound better initially because they are immediately louder. I almost always prefer older discs (redbook) to the newer ones when it comes to popular music.

The latest, two-disc edition is by far the best. While you're at it, pick up "Tusk" and the 1975 "Fleetwood Mac" reissues. Those sound awesome as well.

My friends and I were blown away with how well it sounds on my system. I surprised you thought it sounded flat. I have read on 6moons that a lot of newer CDs are recorded very hot which compresses the dynamic range.
