I'm sorry but when you have an orginal pressing of a record, that's the best.Look you can have a 1969 Led Zeppelin 2 , look how many pressing were made and how,many remastered were made .Jimmy Page swears by his new pressing and others say it sucks because it was digital remastering. It's all about the money.Plus they have critics paid off to telling you this copy is the Best.In the end it's your choice how many copies of the album you want.
Sam here again.Is new remastered vinyl fake vinyl?
I grew up on vintage vinyl and I loved that sound, however I haven't owned a turntable in 20 years and the only reason I don't get back into vinyl is because new remastered vinyl is FAKE vinyl and I knew it from the first listen. Granted new remastered vinyl has a lot less surface noise than 1st press vinyl, however the sound is gone and it ain't no accident friends!
Just have a listen to a first pressing of is this love by bob marley straight from YouTube to avoid manipulation of the audio.

Clearly the 1st press from 1978 has that very distinct sound I remember however, if I didn't know the remastered version was vinyl I would never know because that distinct sound is not there? And you can find hundreds of examples all with the same results. It looks like the vinyl isn't the only thing being played here friends? Compared to the 1st press the remastered version sounds like mono.
