That's a really decent price for all you're getting on it. I don't think I paid much less for the Separations reissue and that didn't have as much bonus material. Even if it is just the deluxe CD repeated it'll still be a better sound quality. But I guess if you're not picky about owning a vinyl LP vs a CD then it might be a bit of a waste.

This just sounds like an LP reissue of the Deluxe CD, doesn't it?

I especially love the fact that they crammed 60 minutes on the second LP.
That is going to sound great.
The biggest selling point is the 8 page booklet with liner notes from Jarvis.

I imagine the booklet is the same as the CD deluxe edition (i.e. 24 page CD booklet condensed to 8 page vinyl).

I wonder if the other two of the holy trinity will get similar vinyl deluxe treatment.

Brilliant!

And it must be a completely new mastering of the LP, since the original didn't include 'Babies' if I recall...

It'll just be the deluxe CD master I would have thought.

I doubt it's going to offer improved sound quality over the CD if they cram 60 minutes into two sides of vinyl.  Maybe those who buy vinyl for the sake of it will enjoy it though.

Sold my original His N Hers LP some years back in times of poverty, so this will make a nice replacement.

hmm, i know over 50 minutes is usually avoided but up to 60 minutes is pretty much fine, you'd have to be a real audiophille saddo to notice. that's if the pressing is any good though, and i haven't heard great things about Music On Vinyl

Don't agree as no album with that amount of groove-cramming I own sounds in any way good.  It just isn't something that happens.

 

But I guess if one is buying vinyl for the sheer novelty then the fact it'll sound rubbish won't matter at all

I just think if someone wanted it on vinyl, well, is it actually that hard to get hold of an original copy...? I've never looked for it meself, but couldn't imagine you'd be talking much more than £20 for one...?

I reckon the original album would sound pretty ropey on vinyl anyway. Those '90's pressing weren't really up to much and the production and mastering of the album was always pretty crap. I suspect this new pressing, given that the cd sounded better in my opinion, will sound fine for the actual album but not so good for the bonus material.

Because they're demos or sides C and D are more cramped?

I suspected as much, you are a Russell man; I just meant that maybe cos the demos were never recorded to the highest standards originally that they might suffer more on this.

Nah, for demos I think they are incredibly well formed. They're more like unproduced studio sessions really. It simply doesn't get any better than The Boss.

Absolutely.
You're Not Blind does betray a wee bit of under-cookedness. But boss as well all the same.

Just look at side D it's full of songs that were 'properly' recorded.
His 'n' Hers and Deep Fried in Kelvin are longer than 16 minutes and you have another three tracks on that side.
To me those tracks should be pressed in the highest quality possible.
This is just an overpriced cash in, but that doesn't mean that I'm not gonna buy it, eventually.

I don't get why people say vinyl sounds better than CD's, that doesn't seem likely...

I rather like my original vinyl H'n'H and Intro. Never done a proper comparison but I'm inclined to say I prefer them to the sound of the original CDs - just that bit more lively and punchy and natural-sounding. Different Class is another matter!

Fred, people say it 'cos it's usually true! Treated myself (to the tune of 20p) to an original 7" of the Stones' 'Not Fade Away' the other week and it felt like I was hearing it properly for the very first time!
