blanketbyday Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 <3 this album, Hellbent for a while on getting my hands on a reissue of it but realized I am totally content with an oldie. FYI They have the 180G Version up around the internet, Acoustic Sounds being one of the places carrying it. Seems a bit Pricey at $60.00.

theinkd Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 well first of all its remastered, second of all its 180gram, third i got it for $45 lol, just was flirting with the girl working there and she took 10% off. also i have both, i know what you mean when you say a "dollor bin item" i got the original in perfect condition for around 8 bucks... but if this was one of your favorite albums like it is mine, you would like to hear the remaster on nice surface noise free 180-gram.

idreamofpunk Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 George Harrison? Dollar Bin Garbage? Rage Much? My thoughts exactly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molder Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 My problem with this is why not get the original? I know it is remastered and all, but this is not how George had recorded this album to sound, and is the product of modern sound engineers changing the original artistic integrity of the music. But that's just my opinion and why I will never purchase a "new" old vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melikecheese Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 The re-issue from a few years back has more tracks on it anyway. I prefer the original pressing, with the big poster, nice set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blanketbyday Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Talking shit, I'm just curious if they actually remastered it or went with the master George Participated in before his passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollisbrown Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 wait til the vinyl bubble bursts and they will be paying people to take away all these stupid fucking major label cash grabs. anyone who pays $55 for dollar bin garbage is a moron. NM copies of the original regularly sell for $30 so I don't think it's out of the question to pay $55 for a new copy that has been remastered and pressed on 180 gram vinyl. I've been selling records for just over 20 years and the only vinyl bubble that's going to burst is the one that's holding 25 different colors of the first Blink 182 LP. I sold over 50 copies of the first re-issue of All Things Must Pass in 2001 (well before the current vinyl upswing). Record buyers/collectors will always be around and it's really great to see young people buying them again no matter what the reason.

loveisdrunk Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 It's an actual remaster, NOT the one George did before passing, and from what I hear it sounds pretty damn good. You can also purchase the album as hi-rez audio files as well. Talking shit, I'm just curious if they actually remastered it or went with the master George Participated in before his passing.
