I'd heard about the loudness wars affecting "remasters" -- I've compared
post-2000s remasters with originals and been left wanting.

I didn't think they'd try to scrimp on audio quality on vinyl, which is
most likely going to be listened to by an audiophile.

I tried explaining to my daughter who grew up with streaming that we
used to have to wait until a song came on the radio then hold the tape
recorder up to the speaker to tape Your Favorite Song.   :)
