Edited 2 months agoThanks to MK for the insistence of high quality throughout the career, bringing Audiophile quality sound to the masses at a forever affordable price. Lovely separation as usual & the classic warmth without losing detail. A joy to listen to……… when you ca turn it up & get ‘More Lovely’ rather than ‘Noise’ lol.
Superb. -
I found a VG copy of this for a good price and even though I want a NM copy, I thought I would try it out to see how it sounded. Even with the odd noise here and there on my copy, the mastering is truly incredible on this LP. I will 100% be looking to upgrade my copy with a cleaner pressing. -
I have this pressing and it does sound amazing however mine is stamped RL side B and HW side A all other matrix info is identical never seen another one like it,not listed on Discogs either
-
Edited 2 years agoAmazing sound quality on this release. Pressing is very good too.
I made two needledrops of two of the tracks from this vinyl record - You can find them on the right side in the videos - Under the names:
Dire Straits - Love Over Gold (1982 UK Vinyl)
Dire Straits - Industrial Disease (1982 UK Vinyl) -
With NM copies kicking around at £10-12 this is possibly the best value true audiophile wax out there. The clarity and separation of instruments and vocals is sublime.
Knopflers delicate guitar work is there to savour in all its glory through Private Investigations.
This is sound engineering at its most perfect…
-
I bought this pressing in NM condition and it’s the best that I’ve ever heard this album. Period. -
Get yourself a NM or Mint copy of this 1982 UK pressing when you can still get it cheap. You won't be dissapointed. -
It does have an excellent sound, but I have never liked Dire Straights, or this record. The second half of side two is much better.
I can trying to explore mellow music and being recommended this record around the time it came out. The person who recommended this said most of the music I was looking for was old. Guy was literally half blind. Nice guy but didn't have a clue, and he worked in a record shop. Duh!
Why not recommend Eno, or some mellow jazz, Classical. Shaking my head. -
I've inherited an LP of LOG with an embossed gold star on the back cover, anyone know anything about this version. its marked 6359 109 (Vertigo) and the gold star is positioned above the track listing? -
