The original scores 'fresh tape' points in the higher frequencies, the new UHQR easily betters the original on bottom as well as in terms of image focus and drop dead black backgrounds. ... A newly produced full color laminated 'one sheet' gives you both master tape boxes showing them to be 30 IPS Dolby masters and not EQ'd copies. This after years of hearing and reading that Nichols had digitized the tapes and then for 'safe keeping' destroyed them, or that they were destroyed in the UMG fire. ... While some UHQRs are revelatory, this one compared to the original and Japanese is merely better overall, but it's sure to buy a thrill for Dan hard core devotees who will now own the definitive edition.\" — Michael Fremer,\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrackingAngle.com\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"32 - Elusive Disc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59346035278169,"sku":"v753088104572","price":56.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1069\/1166\/2425\/files\/LAP001045___79473.1663363929.jpg?v=1789030135","url":"https:\/\/prdz2u-9w.myshopify.com\/products\/steely-dan-countdown-to-ecstasy-2lp-analogue-productions-uhqr-box-set-45rpm-clarity-vinyl-preorder-ships-tba","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
