i wanted to say that the three tracks on side B are pressed *a little* better. Honestly though, were all the retroactive pressing really that quiet? Somebody with originals care to chime in? sorry about the double post, I'll try to consolidate my thoughts next time. yours -j On Wednesday,

im going to ask buzz what the deal is. (anybody here have any ideas why they cant do a decent re-press?) The poor sound quality is partly down to the fact that (like the Transmat Relics LP that was 'repressed' recently) this is a bootleg of the original Buzz LP, not a remaster or even a

Similar to when you make a copy of a cassette to a second cassette, then that second to a third cassette. The quality has diminished. I don't know the technical term for it. If you say those older records are full on the bass, it leads me to believe that problems were not that they were of

Remember the early 90s, when pressing 4 or even more tracks per side was common for LPs (check out many Trax LPs licensed to PRT, etc)? Whilst there was some weakness in volume, it's nowhere near as bad as the repress in question sounds. So it is definitely a duffer. I agree. I'm not the big fan
