Lots of good info there, Monte. Just a few quick thoughts off the top of my head.
New Beatles CDs
Those Bowie Rykodiscs have been out-of-print for years. I'm more interested in hearing about the newer releases on Virgin. I'll probably be picking up a few of those soon.
I'm not happy with the current Supertramp remasters, after hearing Crisis? and Quietest Moments... They sure sound grainy to me. The MFSL Crime of the Century is very good, but these days I'm sure it's hard to find and expensive when you do.
I was also disappointed with the Dire Straits Making Movies remaster on WB, despite the SBM hype. Anyone else have any experience with their other early titles?
The Peter Gabriel remasters on Geffen sound very good to me (1, 3, and So). Very smooth and detailed. Unfortunately, it looks like they all went out-of-print recently.
I also like Roxy Music's Siren remaster on Virgin. Same with the recent reissue of Devo's Are We Not Men?
