Definitive Audiophile pressings

[Hemotep]

I just hope the new plant means that they can expand their offerings to albums from bands like REO Speedwagon and Kenny Loggins.

 

[Jbraswell]

Ah shit I have a Kenny Loggins story too.

He has a son who was a year younger than me in college. Son lived on the same dorm floor as some of my friends so we met him during parents weekend. He was the nicest guy.

His 80s soundtracks are awesome Danger Zone, I'm Alright

I would be in to some blues releases.

Indianola Mississippi Seeds would be cool as one thought.

This one just got reissued last year by Friday Music. No clue how it sounds--I know they are kinda hit or miss from what I have heard.

Seriously, it’s a good bump though. Big news for for sure.

What do you hope this new plant will allow MoFi to press? You have a MoFi wish list? We were talking about “coolest” albums MoFi has pressed in the past (I think the consensus is the OMS pressing of Sonic Youth’s Goo). They apparently did a Primus EP at some point too.

I've said it before. But gimme some AAA D'Angelo reissues. Or other albums where bands went through the trouble of recording AAA only to have their records be cut from high res digital...

The Top Gun volleyball scene wouldn't be the same without Playing With the Boys

I have the original Monarch. Sounds Really good with a clean copy, but others in this arena would be great to see released.

Apparently when people were writing spec songs for the movie Loggins knew that no one would write a song for the volley ball scene, so he did.. and it got him the gig.

And Styx, don't forget Styx

That's not how Jim Messina tells it.

I have that Primus MoFi EP. Dont know who mastered it, but it basically sounds like that time Primus played Letterman and the sound guy put the bass way toi low in the mix and you mostly hear drums and guitar. Thats kind of how the MoFI sounds.

MoFi was probably like, " those pesky young-ins always boosting up their bass, I'll show them [shakes fist in air]"

No, the sound guy just had taste….

Man that’s shit

Primus is one of the those bands you cannot be neutral on. You either hate them or absolutely hate them.

 

[Jbraswell]

Let's be honest. EVERYTHING Mofi does is not Great. Maybe 75% ?

 

[Jbraswell]

And Styx, don't forget Styx

I jam some Styx. Call me a Boomer but it's not a Mofi IMO

 

[Hemotep]

I jam some Styx too. My wife mocks me relentlessly.

Yeah I was being a smartass. I agree there's no need for any Styx on MoFi. Now watch it happen.

 

[Hemotep]

If they add the Cartman version of Come Sail Away as a bonus track I'd buy it.

Boomers are managing that department

I mean like for all the MoFi hype it’s still just a company. They’ll have some exceptional work and some just ok stuff, and artist curation is a matter of taste and availability. I’m all for more music getting in the hands of talented people to maximize their potential.

If nothing else Styx soundtracks one of the great "last scene in the first episode" moments in TV history so I have a soft spot.
