i think modern recordings on the whole are utter crap!!
i am a vinyl maniac and i think for rock the best recordings came from the mid 80's, and indeed a lot of the best recordings were aussie pub bands!
i find modern rock bands are recorded too loudly in the first instance and that they lose stereo "imagery"........... it is like a wall of noise emanating from two boxes in the corner of the room
i have an original lightning hopkins vinyl from 1957 that is an astounding recording, you know where every body is situated on the stage AND their depth of position................ i cannot tell where the music is coming from as i cannot "hear" the speakers in a sense if you know what i mean?
