I tried this in the vinyl asylum to no effect. I am hoping someone here likes B & S and vinyl. My question is about pressings and sound quality. Amazon.uk has been sold out of most of the B&S vinyl for sometime, as they are all limited issues. Suddenly, they have most (maybe all) available. Are these new pressings? How does one tell? Are new pressing likely to sound inferior to originals?Thanks
Follow Ups:
i recently bought both sinister and arab strab on vinyl and both were poor quality...much noise and skips...
I have an early gatefold pressing of their second LP on Matador and the sound quality is, well, it's OK, but I found the record noisier than I would care for. So buying early didn't help. As a rule I have found UK pressings are not up to the snuff they used to be.I have no idea how many they pressed the first time but there is a chance they used new masters for the new lot. In any case you probably won't do worse, go ahead and buy them.
It's all about the music...
I have "If You're Feeling Sinister" and "The Boy With The Arab Strap" on vinyl. Both sound fine as far as modern pop recordings go. Can't imagine that later pressings would be any different from mine especially since they are pressed in such low quantities. As a matter of fact, my copy of "Sinister" may not be a first pressing, as I bought it only a couple of years ago. If you like the music, get them and don't worry about whether you're achieving that nth degree of sound quality.
