Who was responsible for mentioning that "Steely Dan CDs Different Masterings: The Summary Thread" on that other forum??? My head hurts! I'm obviously a cloth eared neanderthal who has no appreciation for such subtlety or nuances but I thought my SD CDs sounded just fine so there is obviously something lacking in me! I doubt that I'm a quarter way through it yet just like a kid in a horror movie peaking from behind my hand covered eyes, I know I should close that tab on the browser but I'm probably likely to read the lot. I'm not sure if it's impending old age or just not that interested in the detail but I'm certain I'll not retain most of this. It would be really nice to get a consensus that says we (as a group) have come to the conclusion that this is the definitive version of said album. Highly unlikely I'd imagine yet if they've already said it I've obviously forgotten it
