Morph the Cat deheaded


Any one else notice that the vinyl copy of this album is seriously flawed. The low end is too bloated and the highs are missing in action. It sounds like Steve Hoffman mixed this using only headphones. It is a shame since this is a great album and would be even more fun if the mix was correct.

The DVDA and CD both sound much better, which is usually not the case.

Interesting you mention that. "Morph" has been on my hot rotation for a few months. I usually play the DVD-A version, which sounds incredible. While attending the LA HES in early June, someone put on a vinyl copy of Morph, and I thought the music was missing much of it's punch and life. I attributed the sound quality to the system, but now I realize perhaps it was the recording, and not the playback equipment.
The LP version is one of the best sounding recordings on vinyl EVER, if the music itself leaves something to one's desire. IMHO, it embarasses the DVD-A in comparison. I have had some issues with other Hoffman masters - but this ain't one of them by a LONG measure.
