Black Mountain - Destroyer

Nice. I listened to it on Tidal earlier. I cancelled my Amazon order because they did not get it in time for day of release.
Went to 3 Houston record shops who did not get it. Austin shops got a few copies each but by next weekend they will be gone.
So.... Amoeba Hollywood location is shipping the LP to me tomorrow.
 
Ryo Fukui, "Scenery". Excellent re-issue by We Release Jazz. Half speed mastered. This is my second re-issue by this company and I am impressed with the quality of the music and the quality of the album production.

Classic Ledzep in a new remix.

Whether MQA or not, you could argue the remastering engineer kind of knows how it was supposed to sound. I find some vocals maybe partially a tad recessed, otherwise splendid. Might be the master though. Then again, bass lines come out nicely display mastery of the instrument by John Paul Jones.

very nice! is this the 2014 remastering or something new?

the digital versions of 2014 remasterings made these albums listenable again... earlier digitizations were abominable. the 2014 LZ-1 remaster is especially superb.

in any event, these albums need to be heard on vinyl -- i have yet to hear a digital version that can even come close... ain't go no soul.

addendum: note from discogs on the 2014 digital remasters...

"The new remasters were created from 192 kHz/24 bit digital transfers of the original analogue tapes. The catalogue is being remastered now to take advantage of the significant advances in mastering technology that have occurred since 1991"
 
This is coming from where the other one came from. Jimmy Page re-mastered.

Four incredible musicians, still amazing today. “Stairway to Heaven” is probably the all-time best prog rock ballad ever written IMHO.
