Reviews
-
This 24-bit 96-kHz remaster, essentially serving as a 50 (!) year anniversary release, sounds amazing. The clarity, dynamics, and mix are perfect. The soundstage is very wide and deep, making speakers nearly disappear. The sound can be as smooth as glass or as sharp as a razor, as the music dictates. There's some strong bass lines but they're well defined and not bloated. Excellent
