Will somebody remaster CTTB first...
Stormbringer remaster is taking us to 40th anniversary if they can't find the master then...for God sake, work on the COME TASTE THE BAND remaster album.
It doesn't matter if it comes first, will somebody tell those people.

Re: Will somebody remaster CTTB first...
Oh, I just can't help weighing in on this one... finally baited!
All CD issues of CTTB sounds like sh*t. Or so I thought! Boy was I wrong.
The other day I happened to check out the Japanese MiniLP CD that I bought a few years ago, being the anally retentive completist anorak saddo that I am, but never actually listened to. Anyway, I coded the disc in Apple Lossless (full CD quality), put on good headphones and WOW! Even if the CTTB masters are lost (allegedly?), this disc is pretty close to perfection, I must say. I could hear all sorts of things going on which I never heard before (and this is the album I've listened to the most in my entire life!), especially the utterly great bass playing and the cool, understated keyboards. It also includes the single edit of YKOM without listing it, as an added bonus.
Very highly recommended for all MkIV fans while we hopefully wait for something even better!

Re: Will somebody remaster CTTB first...
It starts with being a Japanese product, but listening to my copy, I have to agree, it's just the good work they do in transfering, somehow they bring out things the others don't, and they always sound brighter too.
They also bring out the best in the mastering of the product, whatever the format.
They are the best by far at manufacturing recordings.
(they certainly like everything louder than everything else)

Not quite, I prefere domestic auto makers, and they also make a lot of crappy stuff there, but records tapes and CD's are one of their specialties, for some reason, and I'm glad.

Glenn Hughes has terrible luck with masters. The Master of Hughes Thrall was sadly taped over a few years ago and lost. Tragic.
