…it's Analogue Productions, remastered by Hoffman and Gray.MoFi is getting blamed here for a lot of things they didn't do. They've made some fine SACDs and records, and they've made some that are not so fine. End of the day, it's not the label, it's the condition of the tapes (both how they were originally recorded and how much they've degraded) and the mastering choices made by the engineers.
Which also points up …"MoFi" (or AP, or Sony, or any label) does not remaster an album - an engineer does. Many of the current MoFi SACDs are done by Rob LoVerde. To my ears, his work on the Doobie Brothers and Band releases is fine - the former, especially, have an exceptional dynamic range and clarity. A few years back, their go-to guy was Shawn Britton, who was responsible for both the Pixies and the Dead Can Dance releases. Hoffman and Gray have done work for a number of labels. Some people swear by them, and some swear at them.
