Peter Gabriel....Bad sounding CD's......groan.....


Hello all
I'm a big Peter Gabriel fan and own all his cd's. Aside from his latest release UP, all his cd's sound horrible. Thin, bright, digital, and lifeless. Does anyone know if DCC, MFSL, or any other company that specialized in remastering recordings worked on his stuff? I noticed some of his cd's in the music store now sport the 'digitally remasterd' logo. Are they that much better then the 'older' releases? Also I see he has just released a Greatest Hits cd, are those songs remastered and improved?. Please do not recommend analog records as that is not an option for me right now.
Thanks in advance guys

I also have a copy of the LP of "So". It sounds all right, but not analog in the best sense of the word. It does not say whether the original master was digital or analog, but PG's albums sound like they may have been stuck in the dark ages of digital mastering. Too Bad, great music.
I also am a big fan of Gabriel and your right some of the recordings are awful. The first cut on "UP" will blow you out of your seat with brightness. The Lp's are much better. If you can find the older genesis albums( Selling England... or Foxtrot) you will be amazed at how good he sounds especially the Japanese pressings
The remastered cds are a big step up from the original cds, the SACDs...if you have already upgraded to the remastered CDs are a smaller step though still worthwile in my opinion
