I can shed a bit of light on this ... Back in 1990 when the project was in production, the choice was made by the company to use the mixes that Ron Jones was given after the sessions on his DATS as the source of their master. Thanks for the info, that is interesting to know. I guess there's a silver lining in that if the old release had perfect sound, there would have been less demand for the expanded edition. I have only rudimentary knowledge of this, but my assumption (possibly wrong) from what you've said would be that the session DAT was some sort of board mix or the listening mix while they were recording it? I'm further guessing that the show was actually mixed with the multitracks, so that's why a proper two-track mix was never created.

Yeah. The old CD was very hissy... The new one sounds great, and doesn't have the very bizarre balance issues the FSM box set had (which caused me to sell it after listening once). Terra, are you referring only to THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS on the FSM box or the entire box?

I've said about GNP in previous posts about some of there cd releases they might say expanded even limited but also some are CDR'S fact. Not my question, leagolfer, but thank you for the comment. You're right, though. One needs to be careful of some of their later pressings.
