OK, here goes.......
Side one of "GHS", ( mine came in somewhat warped),
First, just a little preamble, I bought my only other copy in/around 1975. Always loved it. It is not the usual Rolling Stones music afterall, but always registered with me. I think most will say this was always an underrated record because of it’s then SQ. My copy always sounded sort of muddy/dull/not much detail. So when I saw this newly re-mastered version, and given I’m a dedicated vinyl guy, it seemed to be a no-brainer.
After the first few notes on side one, I was left not knowing what to think. The SQ was just so different from my memory of this lp. As I moved forward through the first side, I realized it is much better than I was use to but my feeling is it will take many more listenings to truly understand how much better this lp is than the original or any other lp copy of this lp is..
So far, my recommendation is to turn it up to at least 1 o’clock.
Now, side 2.
Bass lines are/have been easy to follow. Nice detail. Wide soundstage. It seems so far, this record was limited to the quality of the recording studio at the time. The lyrics, the mood is/are so thoughtful and soulful which really gets to the heart of this great record and why it is to me, so special. In the end, a conservative rating will be an 8. But this record just so connects with me, it's enjoyable rating is a 9.
Lp 2 up later, and will be just "gravy".

I agree @slaw just listening to the digital the more refined rhythm guitar and drum kit are worth throwing caution to the wind and ordering Goat on vinyl |
@uber there is no justice when we lose a guy like Al and the world retains..... well u know..... sad |
