NEWEST Rolling stones Mono reissues.

A fool and his money are easily parted.

The old mono box from a few years ago is currently over $2000! 

any  links for the  new  mono records

 200g discs make it better. And the high price makes it better. Too many new pressings for uninformed fools with money.

no other details . i heard this on i heart radio Friday.

 analog RobinHoodism!

Waste of money! But if you've got it to burn ...

I think that this is tremendous news for Rolling Stones enthusiasts who have the just gotta have it desire, for any number of reasons that they don’t have to even think about having to explain to anyone.

Its a bit pricey probably because reasons - it is hardly aimed at the throw away if ya don’t like it mindless-set.

{Anyway, if these are discs that were first issued in the 60s, then you have to multiply the price paid then by 20 times or more to get the equivalent new price today, on account of inflation..}

I like to think that some of us may feel the same about certain special things in our own lives from time to time.

Any bets on when the thread on "Rolling Stones mono reissues disappointing" drops? You don't get early Stones albums for SOTA sound.

I do have all the period US mono releases. IMO, it's the only way to listen to early Stones.

Why bother when you can get a good period press for a decent price?

At least you get the cool factor of it being a period press.

You need the DSD versions, honestly who wants to listen to mono?

If you're a millennial that has never heard mono before just cover one ear and there you have it.

Audiofools!

"You need the DSD versions, honestly who wants to listen to mono?"

Mono in some cases, enhances the "illusion" of the band in a imaginary stage formation rather than a recording studio. No hard L/R like those awful Beatles recordings. It's subjective, but perhaps you haven't experienced a top flight mono setup and "stamper grade" mono LP?

Listen to "Lady Jane" from Aftermath in mono, on a proper rig-breathtaking.

The DSD versions are good, but have a sterile/ too perfect vibe to them. I bought several CD's when they were released. Still play them now and then.

@tablejockey I was there, I got the T-Shirt. When Stereo was released it was a breath of fresh air. If you like mono go for it.

When I say DSD you have to copy a SACD onto a SSD and play it on a server. The Japanese single layer SACDs are best.

I grew up with vinyl and I hate it. The real deal has always been reel to reel tape if you want to go down that rabbit hole.

But anyway glad you like the Stones, Brian Jones and Mick Taylor were/are my favourites.

Seems like another attempt to dislodge aging Boomers from their retirement accounts.  One wonders what the looks on the faces of the Band Members would be circa 1965 if they were told that in 55 years their fans , now aged and retired would be paying outlandish prices for their music.
