New remastering of Steely Dan's Katy Lied review by Fremer


I don't have a turntable, but in this case, the remastered material is streamable. I did a bit of listening last night and it sounds a bit better, but it’s still far short of Aja, so there’s a let-down effect. “It sounds better” is not the sonic experience of “Wow, this is amazing.” 

Still, better is better, and I'll settle for better.

I own the UHQR version of Katy Lied (and all of the other SD releases as well*). IMO, I may be most shocked and impressed with KL. I can't believe what a clean, distortion-free recording it is. The quality of the recording made me want to keep turning it up. Obviously, I'm a huge Steely Dan fan and I love this record. For me, the $150 for the UHQR was well worth it.
