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.

now have a listen to the remastered version of the same song.

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.
