excellent CD, the sound is incredible. It's so good that I was thinking on also buying the sacd version.

As has often been noted, the sound quality of most of the older rock/pop music (cd's)leaves a lot to be desired. As one of the old guys around here, I'd like to hear more of the 50-70's stuff, but the poor quality I've gotten most of the time makes me really reluctant to buy any more of it. Can anyone offer some guides to better sounding oldies? How are the 'Time/Life' compilations, for instance? Do any other sources offer decent sound quality on the older stuff?
Thanks for your help guys ...

Stay away from the MCA Millenium Collections (the silver Best of albums) available at P.O.S. displays.
I bought the Who one. My Generation digitally clips throughout the entire song. Woo for digital distortion.

Some of the remastered discs are good. Also be on the lookout for older artists' new recordings. I have a Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown CD from 2000 that is just awesome. John Lee Hooker "Mr Lucky" is good, too.

I've got most of the Jimi Hendrix on vinyl. Any recommendations as far as CD's? How do the remastered disks sound?

All of the current (AUTHORIZED) Hendrix cd's in print are re-mastered, and sound pretty good.......especially: "first rays of the new rising sun"......"south saturn delta".

I have Smash Hits, Blues, and that live disc with Machine Gun on it (forget the LP name). To be honest I really don't listen to them much and I don't know if they're remastered or not. I'll take a look when I get home.
