John,

I'd have to agree with you on your assessment of LP's, CD's and LP's burned to CD. There are a lot of overlays and nuances of analog recordings converted to CD that are not faithfully reproduced via the modern digital to digital CD.

Some artists still prefer recording initially to analog before the final mix makes it's way to CD.

Here's something to think about:

CD technology became available to the masses in the early 80's and was touted as the ultimate in sound innovation. Isn't it sad though that just as the "ultimate" media was coming to the forefront, the music industry was losing it's ability to identify and promulgate talent?
