I don't get much into "prog rock" but this is a masterpiece. It's as much "pop" as "prog". The music moves from one catchy riff to another as smoothly as Salmon swim upstream to spawn.

This is the pressing I bought when it came out and I hope you enjoy revisiting as much as did. There's a small "hump" in the wax between "I've Seen All Good People" and " A Venture". I rolled the bass off a bit between the fades but you'll still hear it. Other than that, I think this 40 year old wax has survived the years better than I have!

Prime Rip, this beautiful title has always been muffled and poor sounding in any version or format. Now it is crystal clear, thanks (standing ovation - many claps).

Thank you. Nonetheless: frequency range, bit rate, DR?

Posted By: eventide Date: 07 Jan 2012 14:43:46

Heh, don't make too much out of numbers, try it out at least. The bitrate is 24bit if that's what you want to know. I agree tho that a dynamic range value would be nice to have, but it's also just a value for the dynamic, it doesn't really tell you much how it will sound. You've to try it out for that to know ;)

Thanks for the rip tubert!

I've found a few other hi-res rips before but I think this one has them beaten, fair and square. I was actually hoping for pbthal to do another rip with his new equipment, but there's likely little need for that, now that you posted this rip.

I like the sound of this one a lot. Not too much noise. Very few clicks and crackles too, so quite enjoyable. At the end of some songs, the balance seems to a bit off, but that could just be the pressing. I should probably do a comparison first.

For those who want the DR stats before downloading:
