Zum Thema Vinyl Lovers ein Zitat von Michael Fremer auf musicangle:
Unfortunately, this mysterious reissue on the „Vinyl Lovers“ label, under license from „OOO ‚Universal Music‘, Russia,“ and manufactured in the EU, while nicely pressed, perhaps at Pallas, sounds mastered from a CD, using a bad CD player. It’s not even close to the original.
Everything’s been cleaned and sanitized for your protection. The wonderfully ragged instrumental textures have all been smoothed over. What are beautifully muted colors are reduced to gray scale. Careful front to back positioning of instruments and voices have been flattened into a single dimension. There is no „there, there.“
Even the cover is poorly executed. There are reissues worth $30.00: records cut from original master tapes using great gear by people who know what they are doing. Records where you know who did it and what was used for the source. Records that feature high quality artwork and paper.
This overpriced piece of „product“ offers decent pressing quality, but little else for your $30.00 Stay away and proceed with caution with everything from „Vinyl Lovers.“ That’s my advice.
