old zz top recordings


I think i tell of on my age when I say that we use to listen to the very first zz as albums and 8 track. Rio grand mud, fandango, first album are some of the best music out there if you youngsters never heard ( but dont call me an old fart I can hang with the best of ya, and I like alternative and female rr)

BUT is there any cd's of zz that are not remastered that sound like there in a coffee can? The old ones really kicked and if you ever heard the old you hate the new ones. The only recording Ive heard is off the armagedion sound track and it sounds correct.
Am I the lone ranger.

I have some old ZZ Top LP's that sound awesome! I havent heard a ZZ Top CD that comes close.I still cant figure out why people continue to agonize over being unable to get great (analog) sound.Look at the less than happy arrival of SACD. It was supposed to sound like good analog.I will keep my analog front end and continue to buy used LP's for next to nothing while the anti-vinyl continue their quest for good sound.
