I'm not buying the remasters unless I need a replacement. It's not necessary IMO. Give me some NEW material and I' all over it!

I don't know. Certainly, my CBS editions sound terrible. The Virgin issues sound OK, so they certainly won't be getting replaced.

Rescue don't need to be remastered.
Rescue remasters your room or your car while playing it.
REscue remasters your mind with the best collection of songs ever made, and not only before 9AM.
Rescue helps your neighbors by giving them a good musical education.
REscue makes you feel different and a better person.

Well 320kbps isn't too shabby, I'm gonna feed these links into Cryptload and see what comes out.

It certainly is a shame they couldn't add any outtakes. They tried that for the 1993 Virgin reissues with Mick redoing vocals for stuff like Fiji Jim (he said so himself in an AOL interview in 1994 or 1995) in 12/93 at RPM in New York but that got canned for some reason. "So Young" that was used as a B-Side for VL likely comes from these sessions.

Has anyone listened to the Virgin release of an album, and then a "new" remaster?

I don't want to throw more money down for something that I already have, but I will if they managed to find better masters to source everything from.

Just heard the Sticky Fingers reissue.

Yuck.

Save your money, or at the minimum, listen before you buy.

Sounds to bright for my ears. Brown Sugar is downright sharp, maybe that's what they were going for?

I have worn out to no less than 5 LPs, and still prefer that version. I realize that I'm probably in the minority on that one.

The pundits at the Wall Street Journal are predicting the economy will rebound immediately after the new 'SCUE's release.
