7P62, yes there is a big difference, the older Stones albums from the 60s and 70s were remastered by ABKCO in 1987 and are dissapointing sound quality. The limited edition cardboard album sleeves are new 1999 remasters by Virgin, Bob Ludwig. Big improvement in sound quality, but they are out of print so if you see one grab it. I went to my local Best Buy last night and they had 1 "sticky fingers" left, all other album/CDs were gone. I do have 1999 "some girls" sounds very nice! I also noticed an import greatest hits album called "jump back 1971-93" which has new 1999 remaster it is single CD with about 18 tracks, but cost $23, ouch! I may still buy it and bring a jar of vaseline with me when I check out......Sam
