d00ban Posted October 16, 2013 Author Share Posted October 16, 2013 Got another n00b questions to bring this thread back on track. Is the audio quality of bootlegs such as this likely to be dog shit? Just wondering more than any thing, what would the likely audio source be for such a bootleg? http://www.juno.co.uk/products/ray-bryant-kool-up-above-the-rock/506117-01/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 The source is almost certainly vinyl. The album was remastered and reissued in Japan on CD about 10 years ago (I want a copy of that CD!), but the album version of that track is different and isn't the one on that 7". I prefer the 7" version because once you've listened to that one a few times, the claps on the album version just don't sound right (they're weaker). BTW, I have what is supposedly a 256 Kbps MP3 rip of the Japanese CD and it sounds like shit. It's supposedly a "24 bit/96 KHz remaster" which is a load of bollocks. The rip I have is full of crackles and sounds poor, so if what I have really is a rip of the CD then the CD could well just be a bullshit vinyl rip too.

DJ Rock Well Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Doob - I've got of those 'Originals' 7" bootlegs for Mulatu's "Yegelle Tezeta" and both the source audio and pressing are decent quality. Like Steve said, it all depends on what's available to get the audio from in the first place - if it's come out on a decent CD reissue then that's usually the source, once you're into the realms of songs that only exist on surviving vinyl, you are of course at the mercy of the condition of the source copy. Beyond that, there have just been a lot of bootlegs that are pressed badly on shit vinyl. Sometimes when it's just a really obvious boot with plain white labels and scratched out matrix numbers you kind of expect it, but when they look like someone's spent time on the issue (albeit unlicensed) it pisses me off that they couldn't get it pressed properly. Actually, some official vinyl reissues are just as badly pressed which is worse still IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d00ban Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 Cool! Cheers fellas. Stay tuned for more n00b questions. I quite like the idea of those originals presses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Symatic Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I got a white lable repress of a Coki tune which only ever came out on dubplate, so the whitelable was pressed from either a CD or possibly an internet downloaded mix. you can hear tht the intro is different, i think they had to chop the middle breakdown and use it as an intro cos it's similar. maybe they just chut and pasted the bits of the tune that wernet mixed into another tune and just reconstructed the tune out of that. either way it doesnt sound very good!

DJ Rock Well Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I quite like the idea of those originals presses Yeah me too. I just like having stuff on 7" to be honest and there especially good when the tune is far too expensive for an original 45 or was originally an album cut. There was one other series before those "Originals" that did the same thing - I can't remember what they were called, but I've definitely got one that has Beatnuts "Are You Ready" on one side and Doggett's "Honky Tonk" on the flip.

d00ban Posted October 17, 2013 Author Share Posted October 17, 2013 How many records you got Matt? Can I kindly request that you do one of those "crate digger" type videos where you go through your cool shit please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Rock Well Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 I think that would be particularly tedious for everyone . I don't have a huge collection by any means when compared to serious diggers - about 2500ish, maybe 3000. I could easily have had 2-3 times that amount by now, but I regularly weed out the filler and try to just collect stuff I really like and will listen to rather than collecting for the sake of it or keeping stuff because eveyone else likes it. What I will say though, is that I'm very pleased with what I have got - I've got a pretty good selection of most things I like on vinyl of some sort now. I guess like everyone's collection, it's totally tailored to my tastes and there's always more to find, but yeah I'm pretty happy with what I've got so far.

doppelkorn Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Hey Matt, a while ago a few of us did a little "My Worst Records" video. I'm fucked if I can find the thread but here's my vid anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aG4NYpT4mtI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
