THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS - FLOOD (1990, Elektra)

 




1990 Elektra First Pressing
Cut at Masterdisk by Robert Ludwig
Direct Metal Master

Clarity: 4.7
Dynamics: 4.8
Tonality/Balance: 4.8
Soundstage/Image: 4.7
Pressing: 4.5

Well Holy Shit, this crushes the 2014 MOV repress (which is very good). This should come as no surprise since this is a DMM cut at Masterdisk by the legendary Robert Ludwig. HUGE 3D soundstage with razor sharp detail. Guitars and horns bright and aggressive while low end punches when it’s supposed to. Highest recommendation.

Final Grade: 4.7
