Vinyl kills Hello,

Could somebody please tell me if there is any (audio) differences between the CD's originally released in 1994 and those ones released in 2005 with the slipcases.

Thank you.

The same, the packaging was different, with the 2005 being vinyl replicas, just smaller, of course.

Do you mean the remastered ABCKO releses? No?
Or those re-releases they put out with some B/S name like "american series" or some crap.

The ones I think you might be referring to are the ABCKO releases. They are like the '94 ones were except on a SACD, where you have 64x the 'sampling rate' than on a regular cd (if you have an SACD player). These disks can be played on a regular cd player and still sound much better than the '94 remasters. They have a gold-plated "play side".

If you buy the more recent "american series" or whatever it's called, it's the same sound as the '94 issues.


Nothing beats the origional vinyl (of course).

how could he be referring to the ABCKO releases if he was talking about virgin, the distributor of the stones record label (everything past sticky fingers)?

Egbert Sucking In The Seventies is the only release from the Virgin catalogue I know of that has been remastered with improved sound over the '94 issues. Made In The Shade came out same time as SITS but I don't have it and can't speak for the sound there.

True, and those sounded way better than the 94's. it was the first time they had been released by Virgin, prior SITS had been released by CBS, nd the quality was crap...
