I am thankful and happy about every Purple release :band:
But why you put them under "Super Sound"? It's neither MFSL, DCC or any special mastering...
:dunno:

Through opinion of some people these versions are best sounding...(for example u can see that major of Pink Floyd best versions are also not MFSL or something else..."just" Japanese 1st presses)

indeed, this is the best sounding Deep Purple we have on CD... Unfortunately, remasters were done terribly, and Steve Hoffman only remastered couple albums :rolleyes:

Steve Hoffman Forums:Roland's favorite CD versions of Deep Purple:Burn
My favorite versions are the early Japanese pressings (first pressing and second pressing = 20P2-2608 have identical mastering). The original US Warner Bros. CD is very very close to the early Japanese version, the difference is very minimal. I also had the original EMI CD, and I clearly like the Warner Bros. version better. I also had the 1996 Japanese remaster by Lee Herschberg. At first I thought it sounded better (more presence, more bass), but a longer listening revealed that it was simply smiley-EQ'd (it is not compressed however). the Japanese gold CD also has this Lee Herschberg mastering. I also have the remaster (without copy-control, UK version), but I don't like it very much. Overall, none of the CD versions is really great, and this album could really use the SH treatment. I remember the vinyl sounding much better.
