![]() ![]() The DCC pulls a little more from the tape, more solid low end and a tad finer detail, but overall tonality to the other version is very very close. I have the DCC, which sounds great, and I also just got the mastering in the “Original Album Classics” 5-CD set, which also sounds very good. I prefer the old Columbia CD (Made in Austria) over the MFSL (seems smiley-faced) and the Legacy Edition (too loud/harsh). My preference might still change between these two, who knows. ![]() Overall, I prefer the Austria CD, but the Vic Anesini remaster is also good. The Vic Anesini has good midrange (maybe better than the Austria CD) but is also a tad louder and becomes a little harsh at louder volumes. The original Austria CD sounds very laid back and can be turned up nicely. The mastering I like the least is the one with the 3 bonus tracks (it is the brightest/harshest of these). The original Columbia CD (Made in Austria), the remaster with 3 bonus tracks by Joe Palmaccio (which is also included in “The Perfect Blues Collection” 25 CD box set) and another remaster without any bonus tracks by Vic Anesini (which is included in the “Woodstock Experience” 2-CD set and also in “Original Album Classics” 5-CD set). I have 3 different masterings for this album. Only one good version I was able to find so far, all others I have checked out sounded pretty bad in comparison.Ĭema/One Way (Made in Canada), CDLL-57340, from 1990. Something new for this thread, I am adding dynamic range info also, measured with the Offline Dynamic Range Meter.ġ. These are just my personal preferences, and I am sure that some people will disagree here and there, which is absolutely fine, of course. I just felt it was time for Johnny Winter right now, since I just did some more comparisons and found some new favorite versions just recently. After a long time of no new threads of this kind by me, I figured it would be time for another one of these, and I decided to cover Johnny Winter this time (although I have many other such similar threads already lined up in my head).
