Remastered Supertramp? Crime of the Century?

A&M put out a 1/2 speed Audiophile  vinyl version of Crisis? What Crisis? back in the day. I have one but have never opened it since I was gifted an original pressing mint promo copy which is what I listen to. I see them on eBay every once in a while.

I own the Speakers Corner version. Unfortunately, my copy has a lot of ticks & pops. It sounds good, but I'm not enamored by way of the glowing reviews by others for the original MOFI.

I have been comparing the original cd  to the mfsl cd and it is difficult because the original cd is mixed louder.

Crisis is already on vinyl. You may have to find a used copy.

Any plans to issue it on vinyl?

I just bought Crisis? What Crisis? and the new version is significantly better than the orginal CD I owned. So I plan to upgrade all of my CDs at the local CD Trader!

Right, Quite Right, Bloody Well Right!

My listening impression is that the re mastered version is significantly better than the original, and I have both. I also have the MoFi LP, but that is not as good.( not as dynamic) The original LP is close, and the Japanese LP is even better than that. Over all for digital, the remaster is well done and very worth it..-Ken

I have the Japanese LP that sounds a bit better than the MoFi LP.

How does the new remastered cd compare to the MoFi gold cd?
Thanks

It is better than the original CD mastering. Due to better digital chips, processing and electronics the new one is more refined with better dynamics and overall cleaner less "digital" sound. Still not as good as the original LP or the MoFi LP.

I have the remaster of Crime of the Century and it has pretty good sonics. My guess is that it is better than the original CD release based on the date of the original CD release. A lot of early CD releases were horrible.

Sorry, but I don't have an original for comparison......

Enjoy,
