Hi - check this out! I found this on the web, its an interview with Mike Scott from the Waterboys discussing the Fisherman's Blues LP - say no more...
If you?ve got a decent turntable, seek out the original 1988 pressings in favor of the ?heavy vinyl? re-issue from Simply Vinyl. The former can be found relatively easily in most decent used record shops and, like so many of their other re-issues, Simply Vinyl seems a lot better at delivering a plastic manhole cover than they do at getting the re-mastering right; either they just don?t know what they?re doing or their source material isn?t a first generation master tape. Whatever the reasons, eschew the ?audiophile? label and stick with the thin floppy vinyl of the eighties pressings for the cleanest sound.
mmmm... interesting
