Reviews
- For me, this release doesn’t sound that bad up until Light My Fire… then it just kills my ears. Just not a great sounding recording of that song. Hoping to get a better copy later, but this is okay for now I guess…
- Does anybody know of a stereo LP that would be uncensored ?
I grew up with the 1997 CD and my LP copy is censored on Break On Through (To The Other Side) - Edited 7 days agoToday i listen to this classic album again.Sometimes its simple,sometimes complexed but all in all its always psychedellic,bluesy,progressive and creative.Definitely worthy to listen to.
- Dynamic Range DB has an entry for this release (well, technically the 2012 one): https://dr.loudness-war.info/album/view/113799
- Got this one & AP vinyl box "Infinite ".Though vinyl box quite good is ( i.e. worth money i paid for it ),
THIS version is THE ONE to go for ! BY ALL means & you will not regret it EVER !!! - Brilliant, but why does AP send these out with the records in the outer sleeve? You'd think they'd know about the risk of the sleeve tearing at the edge, which mine had.
- So… currently we have 14 negative reviews against 35 positive ones. On the top of that, the album’s score is 92% of 5 stars (over 2K ratings). I’m listening to my copy rn which has a made in germany sticker on it and I’m really enjoying it.
- I have compared this one with a 68 US Stereo mastering (condition Vg) and this Reissue from Canada. The CAN is more louder and clearer than the US, BUT what I've loved from the US is that Jim Morrison was way more natural and well centered than the CAN.
Example : Break On Throught (censored) : CAN was way more clearer and had presence (instruments) and you can even hear the master tape roll at the start. Everything is perfect, but the voice has been placed to a channel (Right or Left, don't remember) and feel far.
US one Is more quiet and lazy on the presence (crank it and it's better), but Jim is placed at the center and the voice is clear like he's in the room. You can more distinguish were the musician are, too.
To finish, this canadiand reissue is a killer, but could be slighlty better. - This one is odd. The other 2009 Doors Rhino releases are excellent, but this one just isn’t great. There is a lot of distortion throughout and the treble is lacking. However, it still is a pretty decent release overall.
