Rolling Stones "Sticky Fingers" Remasters


Just picked up the 2009 remastered Sticky Finger today for $7.99.
The vocals seem better but perhaps too dominant.

All in all, I still think the Virgin version's that came out in the 90's is better.

I would agree that the CD reissue from the 90's (Apogee "UV 22" remastering) was good. I am posting only to say to avoid the 180 g. LP reissue pressed by RTI from the late 90's, which was a sonic disaster (as were the contemporaneous RTI reissues of Exile and Some Girls). One of the leading mastering engineers oversaw the project (I cannot recall who, but it was someone like Ludwig or Marino) and he went on record after the fact to say that there was a problem with the reissue. I bought all three and unfortunately waited too long before listening to them, at which point it was too late to return them. They sound like the band is under water.
