    It sounds amazing. Translucent brown vinyl. Strongly recommended. Words, words, words
    • jasonsouza77inusa's avatar
      Released in late May of 1982, Avalon was recorded to analog multitrack and mixed to ½” 30IPS analog tape. It is not, as originally stated here a digital multitrack recording. That information came from Bob Ludwig, who made a rare mistake. In fact, the original album was AAA all the way. In 1993 the multitrack tape had to be baked to be playable and that is when it was transferred to a Sony DASH digital multitrack recorder. That transfer was used to produce the surround sound SACD but the original LP was AAA. Sorry for the confusion. - Michael Fremer

          My side 2 matches this, but there is no masterdisk on side 1. Side 1 is hand etched 1-23686 A-SRI 1-2 with a stamp of an r and c inside an s.
