"Packing up Shacking up is all you wanna do" ... was apparently a line that Lindsey refused to remove, even tho Stevie insisted.
Listening to Rumours again, I realize, again; Mick Fleetwood is an awesome unique drummer.
(my is used bc apparently these sku# are not universally comparative)
On the main: In comparison to my orig canadian 3010 vs my orig jap 3010-2(32xd-350). The 3010 is hotter but not dynamically constrained, with brighter eq. It makes the 3010-2 sound a little dull tonally (justified by the graphs above). 3010-2, Micks cymbals seem to lack the impact of the brighter 3010, but that can be rectified w/greater volume. The 3010-2's sunnier disposition also gives Micks drums an apparent brighter edge/tonal impact (esp. The Chain) which makes even the exact same songs sound a bit different, never mind the few songs that actually are recorded differently. The biggest sonic difference, tho, is the added reverb, obvious on the orig canuck 3010.
You Make Loving Fun: 3010-2 sounds dryer. The added reverb provides the 3010 a warmer hollow character. It sounds pleasant, but it obscures detail. Example; w/the dryer 3010-2 you can easily hear Christine doing ALL her own backup vocals, on the 3010 many of those same background vocals sound too hallow to define. Also, you appreciate Christine voice much more w/the japanese 3010-2, she sounds beautifully natural here.
Go Your Own Way: 3010-2 jap is so-so crank-able, stays open, no fatigue. Just wow; hope my vinyl pressing sounds at least as good.
Can't stand the song Don't Stop, so that's enough of Rumours (for now). Doesn't matter, the Japanese 32xd-350 which is also designated 3010-2 is sans the reverb in comparison to the Canadian 3010.
Sal, i think your version is essentially the same as my Canadian CD. It's a fine cd, but once you notice the added reverb ...
