The renewed interest in vinyl has the support not only good sides: from the coast during that burns and tanks invaded the reissues of often dubious quality The amateur cakes to the old times a few reasons to give in to discouragement. Fortunately some labels offer new pressings of quality, such as Dutch Music On Vinyl that emerge with constant care of numerous catalog titles Sony / Columbia. Among their recent accomplishments, the remastered versions of albums by Jimi Hendrix, or a beautiful double vinyl Colorful Alice In Chains. Recent weeks have seen the publication of an edition on two discs Raw Power, closely following the deluxe CD version of the legendary Stooges album. Unlike the latter, the Music On Vinyl edition is silent on bonuses and live, but on the other hand offers two versions of Raw Power or the controversial original mix supervised by David Bowie, and no less controversial remix made in the 90s by Iggy Pop.
opportunity to see the version Bowie long decried by the purists and the Stooges themselves undergo the test of time better than the version Iggy, strongly compressed and tiring to listen to a CD, it sounds better on vinyl only, support deemed more "cordial" but that does not perform a miracle here. In any case the quality is impeccable and pressing the sumptuous gatefold sleeve booklet contains a nice large size, enough to justify a selling price a little high, but somehow more reasonable than an album of that era inevitably cost you a arm if you go looking for him on eBay.
