Heh, that's pretty good. "BUT WHAT ABOUT THE LPS?" I'd think that Luke and David had to set the scope somewhere, and those purty original pressings aren't exactly easy to get.

But a cool mention all the same. I greatly enjoy Fremer's site, even if I don't always agree with him. I like his writing style and general attitude toward things. Maybe he needs to hang out here...

Funny. I guess that's why he e-mailed me the other day. I wonder if he wrote that before or after I responded to him, where I pointed out that the point of the FAQ was strictly to compare CD (and SACD) issues, not LPs as well.

I'm curious if those Decca originals are really as good as he says they are.
