Hi,
I was looking through e-bay and noticed quite a few Gold MFSL's I wanted to get. I then found a great site that had listings of both MOFI LP's, Cassetts, and CD's. (That's www.aurealm.com BTW) I noticed that there were some great discs I wanted to buy...
...But I do not know if some are wise choises. For example, I was reading that the Who's MOFI's were just the Jon Astley remixes. So, I will be naming a few artists and discs that I like and want to know if they are worth buying. I do have some of those discs and I'll put which ones I have:
The Beach Boys-Surfer Girl/Surfin' USA
Cream-Diserali Gears (like how they have both mono and stereo on the disc!)
*Peter Frampton-Frampton Comes Alive (supposed to be remastered on SACD and there is the Deluxe Edition.....)
*Don Henley-Building The Perfect Beast, End of The Innocence
Elton John-Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Honky Chateau
*John Lennon and Yoko Ono-Double Fantasy (well, there is the remixed version I haven't picked up yet)
Pink Floyd-Dark Side, Meddle, The Wall (heard that's rare though :frowning: ), and Atom Heart Mother (I have these on the Shine On box already and they sound OK to me)
The Police-Synchonicity (have original AHM Master Series disc; wayyyyy too quiet, IMO)
*Queen-Night At The Opera (though that's in 5.1 DTS)
R.E.M.-Murmur, Reckoning
Rush-2112, Moving Pictures, and Signals (Have remaster of 2112; need to upgrade Moving Pictures from vinyl!)
Santana-Abraxas (see my comment on Moving Pictures)
*Sting-Dream of The Blue Turtles, Nothing Like The Sun
U2-War, Unforgettable Fire, and Joshua Tree (though certain tracks sound good on the Best Of 1980-1990 collection)
*The Who-Tommy, Quadrophenia, Live At Leeds, Who's Next, and Who Are You (I need to know if they are remixed)
*means that I'm unsure of purchase whether of better versions available or purchase worthy
Since I'm still discovering a lot of classic bands, there will probably be even more of the MFSL discs I want. I am aware that these are rare and OOP and catch outrageous prices, but I'd like to get the ones that are actually worthy, though opinions do matter... And I do not want to start on the MOFI LP's as, or so I've heard, they are only worth it if they are either sealed or in mint condition.
