RE: SHM "Sticky Fingers" Missing the Zipper

"......I just shot out "Wild Horses" on the new SHM SACD against the same tune on the 2002 AB.CO "Hot Rocks 1964-1971" SACD. No contest: Mick's vocal is lost in the b.ckground on the Japanese version and the mix sounds like a stadium venue rather than a studio.

And for sixty b.cks we should get a working zipper on the alb.m jacket.

Notwithstanding all this, what option is there other than vinyl?
....."

Well, I ordered it anyway. Most of Hot Rocks consist of their UK Decca recordings that have always b.en superior recordings when compared to their Atlantic/Virgin catalogue. Somehow, I question the validity of your opinion. Sticky fingers is one of the truly great rock alb.ms of all times and I find it hard to b.lieve that the recording is going to sound as if it was taken from a stadium.

Yes, vinyl is the ultimate......b.t I don't have a TT any longer, so my 4,000 Ls don't do me much good :(
