It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

I always assumed that that one was just a re-packaging. . .

. . . of the original individual issues, not a re-mastering - especially since it came out not long after the original series was completed.



I think part of the problem was that this album was from Supraphon's series of Quad recordings (you can see the "stereo/quad" indication in the upper right-hand corner), which didn't impress anyone on 2-channel. OTOH, there have been Japanese re-masters of these older Supraphon quad recordings in discrete quad on SACD. I got one of them a few years ago (Mahler's Fifth with Neumann) and didn't find it to be much of an improvement.



Looks like I should sell it (i.e., the Japanese quad SACD) - it's going for $499.84 on Amazon right now! ;-)
