The first "Steel Wheels" CD release manufactured by Columbia records was a "DDD"- CD. It was recorded, mixed and mastered using digital equipment. I cannot read who did the mastering since the text in the booklet is much too small!
Some years ago Virgin records re-released "Steel Wheels". This time mastered by Bob Ludwig using UV22 Super CD Encoding. What about the sound quality of this re-release? Is it better than the first issue?

FYI, Bob Ludwig did the original as well.
Haven't heard the Virgin myself.
