Re: Iron Butterfly

Continuing on my hot streak, picked this one up last week and it is a shame all our great 60's and 80's albums are not remastered by these guys, they do excellent work.

Re: Iron Butterfly

Who did the remastering, LG?

Re: Iron Butterfly

Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs, is the company name. They did all the same albums on vinyl years ago, then they waited until they perfected a superior Digital remastering process of their own called "D2" I think it was and then used their own master tapes to produce the CD's. The CD's and vinyl records were all pressed in Japan by JVC, another guarantee of quality.

They are all OOP now Magic, Sony bought the rights in the early 90's but kids have moved away from the audiophile standards that our generation supported for decades now so it's no surprise.

Re: Iron Butterfly

This is awesome!! Ahead of it's time in terms of Heavy Metal ...at about 4:52 in part 1 we can hear a bit of Sabbath as well as early Priest & Maiden.

^^^From the album Metamorphis(1970). Most people associate Iron Butterfly with In-A-Gadda-Da-Vidda. The two albums from the mid 70's aren't very good IMO.
