If it's a Gerrard 401 you have my admiration and despise in equal measure since crap ones for £1000+ now (that's just for the turntable. Never mind the tonearm or amp, plinth etc ).
It's also a case of some vinyl never made it to cd so would have to come from masters to be ripped to flac but it's not like old bands with a big back catalog but limited marketable are going to have that treatment (my parents little angels collection for example) and yes the remastered songs don't always sound as full of depth (I dare you tell me the cd of some of the rock albums I've got are better off on cd. Ad/dc back in black being one of best examples. Also the sound scope of St peppers sounds much richer compared the cd copy I grew up with after finally scalping a mint 1968 copy)
There's so something for the size of the albums and the contents (the insert in St peppers a 1976 calendar with Alice coopers poison or the poster with fresh fruit for rotting vegetables by dead Kennedys)
Biting the hand that feeds IT
