Re-Ish's that KILL the Original.

Sometimes someone does such a good job re-ishing a record, it totally kills the Jones for the original. Case in point is the Mulatu of Ethiopia LP: Nice cover and better sound quality then the Orig. Ditto for the Geraldo Pino represses.b,121 Lately my hat goes off to the Numero Group for repressing WEE: You can fly my aeroplane...nice job.b,121 You know of some quality represses done with luv and respect? OR, you know any records that are dying for a repress by someone who cares?

    b,121b,121Seriously dude, I sold the Orig when that re-ish came out... Though I do miss that Authentic wobbly Worthy Label. Now the re-ish of Mulatu: Ethio- Jazz only got me More interested in the Original.

    i've met,hung with and worked with some famous producers,artisits and musicians who could give a fuckk about the og vs reish debateb,121and for me that always solidified my stance as REAL

    At every level it's about the music.
  • LoopDreamsLoopDreams 1,195 Posts
    So I shoulda named the thread differently... lacka forsight.b,121What I'm getting at is this: if there's a re-ish out there that's as good or better then the original, the Original better be a damn fine Rekid, or I'll give it a pass if it's over a C-note. I'll be more tempted to drop some coin on something that hasn't been re-ished. b,121 Here's a few Elephant dung Encrusted afro LP's that DESERVE to be Re-ished a la Mulatu if they haven't already: img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3045/2947678835_2e7f92c7d5_b.jpg"1

    Hey... I got no beef with reissues, but they NEVER KILL the original regardless of how much "better" they sound.

    the 80s re-press of Grupa ABC sounds a THOUSAND times better than the OG.

Just an observation.

    Actually, I never thought I'd say this but I'd love to see some reissues of classic hip hop LP's on double LP. Those single LP pressings like the 36 Chambers, Street Level, A wolf in sheep's clothing, etc..., REALLY need to be pressed properly on double LP's!
