Inlakesh 0 Posted January 24, 2017 So what's good about this? just some colorful shyt and a couple of new pics?...do the songs sound greater?...why oh why buying something we all already have? just to give more money to greedy Warner? I refuse to do so! Give me some new music instead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HolidayGuy 0 Posted January 24, 2017 TIC was released on vinyl first time out, right? I had never gotten it, so it will be a new experience in that regard. Listening to music on vinyl is a different experience in itself, though, so... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to being in awe of this masterful release. Any free calendar & vinyl cleaning cloth?

Listening to music on vinyl is a different experience in itself, though, so... Yes, vinyl and cassette were still standard releases. It was only from Bedtime Stories onwards when vinyl seemed to be released weeks after the main release. Have Barnes and Noble shipped yet? I've heard nothing about my purchase.

HolidayGuy 0 Posted January 24, 2017 Yah, jonski, I know those were the standard formats at the time. I had gotten I'm Breathless on vinyl when it came out, but then cassette when TIC was released. I didn't get into CDs until 1997. I wasn't given a calendar or cleaning cloth- the injustice. The website said those were for a limited time; and the cloth was for Barnes and Noble customers.

I think the cloths and calendars will be in-store only though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lennylu 0 Posted January 25, 2017 14 hours ago, Mattress said: THIS 2017 EDITION LOOKS GLORIOUS IN PERSON. God it's a relief to see Rhino/Warner Bros handle these special limited editions so well!! Sturdy, gatefold cover with matte finish and original inner sleeves all printed with perfect color grading, clear and correct fonts and the shiny gold ink (was worried they would miss this detail). The colored wax looks INCREDIBLE. Can't wait to spin it in a few hours! Mattress, please give your audio analysis on this vinyl release--I'd love to know your opinion, as always. Thanks!

Mattress 0 Posted January 25, 2017 Listening right now, finally! Almost done with side three. Sounds excellent so far. Correct album master, crystal clear with virtually zero surface noise. Were it not for the slightest amount of sibilance when she hits an "s" it could almost be mistaken for the CD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattress 0 Posted January 25, 2017 Side four might be mastered at a lower volume than the other three (it is the longest). The bass on this is great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tho the original pressing from 1990 still sounds better because it has a better dynamic range. It is on par with all of the 2012/2016 re-releases which is ok but not as good as their original counterparts. Mine has arrived today...not bad it only took them a handful of days to ship it across the pond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Illuminati 0 Posted January 26, 2017 Quick off-topic question: I still don't have "Like A Virgin" on vinyl and am wondering if I should get a second hand copy of an original issue or the re-issue. Which master was used for that? Does it sound the same as the 2001 CD remaster? Those sounded horrendously compressed and lifeless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
