Has a few crackles, but still sounds pretty impressive. Probably consider Making movies, mainly for Romeo and Juliet and Skateaway. Have double LP best of, so that will suffice. Bit of trivia, Skateaway, first heard and saw it, on, of all shows, ....Kenny Everett!....... a long time ago.!! Chuckling now..... Captain Kremmen!!!.....Carla...oo-eee!!

President : Kremmen, I just want to remind you that I'm a country member. Kremmen : OK I'll remember. HAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHA On topic, I've got copies of these coming as well. It's going to take Mofi some real effort to beat out the Jap Pressing of Love Over Gold - that's one of the best sounding records in my collection.

jeromelang Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Do yourself a favour. Give this Mofi 45rpm reissue a miss. Search for the original uk vertigo pressings, or the Mercury boxset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goatboy Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 These are popular. The only album still available on the MOFI site is 'Love Over Gold'. Music Direct has 'Making Movies' in stock and the rest are marked as "awaiting repress". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter_F Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I received my DS collection but unable to give them a spin at this stage. Can anybody who's purchased and heard them please provide feedback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ochremoon Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Bloody crickets! Come on you bludgers who have these and won't open up. Are they any good? If not, why not? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil c Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) I bought the self titled DS last week and initial impression is very favorable! Massive Improvement over the recent Ludwig remaster , much more dynamic and extra depth and punch to bass . Will be buying another of these very soon, hard to decide between Brothers in Arms or Love over Gold. Actually I already have an older version 45 original master of BIA , so imagine less different in quality. Edit; impatient lot !!

giddyup1 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I received my 4 yesterday.......In short ...."STUNNING". The detail is fantastic and it takes the recordings to another level, on my system anyway. Worthwhile purchase if your serious about Audiophile quality vinyl. I have Maxicuts and Pallas pressings but these mofi's blow me away. Very happy 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaynin Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I have all four of the new ones, and the older MOFI (but unopened) B.I.A. Sorry, won't be opening mine until the loungeroom system is up and running...new speakers arriving any day now, then need to source an amp, cables, cabinet. Yeah, it's going to be a while...

Dolphy Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 My copies should arrive today or tomorrow, can't wait to give them a spin. If they're anything like the BIA, it'll be a great listening experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelossus Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I just ordered my copies from Selby's. Just from a brief google search they seemed to be the cheapest option at $105 each including delivery. I have the Pallas reissues as well as the original UK pressings so I will provide my comparisons when I get them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
