    Yes I love digital releases and I want them all released. But I am also a record collector and I am allowed to appreciate two different mediums.

    My point was that this is a thread about the PICTURE DISC. There’s another one specifically for digital releases and one for the reissues campaign. So why not complain there?

    You coulda just shut your mouth in the first place and not start bitching about the bitching! Have a good one bud 😎

    Some of us are excited by it. Why does the constant whining have to seep into every single thread on here?

    If you guys don’t like it why do you come in a thread dedicated to this? 

    Good on ya bud, and some of us live in 2022 and don't have time to sit around in one place listening to records like it's the 70's. I've seen ya around here squakin' about how there wasn't a WTG digital release, so don't be playing innocent. If you celebrate the crumbs, then it is crumbs you are given, good one to remember next time your outside your house without your record player wanting to listen to some Madonna.

    You're right, it does, but the original too...

    (Turn up the volume!)

    With the remastering is just clearer.

    Personally I don't mind when the clip/glitch whatever is already on the original, I just take it as the way the song is. Another examples:

    "Vogue" 7:33/7:34:

    "Drowned World/Substitute For Love" 2:27 (the word "Lovers"):

    I discovered the last one recently and I was checking every edition and yeah, it's everywhere, so it's part of the song. :tongue:

    Anyway, back to the "new" "Into The Groove" remix: sounds promising. It's not perfect, cause it's loud as f**k, but I was comparing it yesterday with the "Celebration" remasters and even "True Blue 35th" and it's, ahem, miles away. Can't wait to have another pre-order track released to compare it too.

    If it was properly remastered there would be zero flaws. As an audio engineer i can tell you clipping means sh*t wasn’t done properly. And if it clipped in its original release,  they have a new opportunity with this release to go back to the multitracks and do a fresh mix before mastering. The fact this isn’t being done for one of the greatest artists to walk the earth is tragic. 

  4. I love the art. The inclusion of the YCD edits is exciting. Into The Groove sounds incredible,  i bought it on iTunes and almost fell outta my chair when i listened to it. Hopefully we still get a proper remaster of the whole album sometime down the Rd.

    It's the fact that Angel and Causing a Commotion aren't included that i'm really having a hard time with. I get that Causing a Commotion was released for RSD, but i'm not bringing my record player in the truck to listen to it. Should be released digitally as well. I feel like Like A Virgin and Material Girl could have been dropped for this, since the 7" versions aren't far off from the album versions. No Lucky Star? And since we're paying homeage to YCD why not include the YCD version of Holiday instead of the 7"? However i'm excited to soon own that 7" version.

    It's amazing to see Keep it Together and Impressive Instant included. And i'm actually blown away by the choices of remixes. Most are my fave mixes of those tracks. However, Frozen most def should have been the Stereo MC's mix, and Hollywood the Thin White Duke mix.

    Ultimately, i think a lot of time and thought was put into this. I'm more amazed/excited than disappointed.

    It's better than they're not remastered/touched/whatever. It would be just a volume boost or worse, a "Celebration" type of affair.

    Better to leave the original sound as it is, I think. :)

    I hear what you're saying, however proper remastering isn't just about volume boosting. And i totally agree that Celebration is a let down.

  6. I'm just stoked to actually have them digitally in the best quality i've heard any of them in. I still have a bunch on CD, but who busts out a CD these days. I've been buying them all on iTunes because i like to own them. I wish they were remastered. It's disappointing that they are not. But i've been kind of diggin the out of order thing because it's like a little surprise.
