Recently picked up an all-time fave on LP ... I have it on multi
formats including CD ....and know this album very well.

So I got a German LP pressing (CCR - Willy & the Poor Boys) and
got around to running it yesterday .... all I could say was "Oh WOW"

We all know the pluses and minuses of LP vs CD .. CD should be much better.

BUT , in this case the LP far surpassed the CD (yes, I know about early CD issues)
the LP was "fuller" , had more "weight/substance/timbre"

the equipment ? nice Pioneer TT w/V-15T3 vs Sony ES CD player. fair mid level stuff.

my tentative conclusion ? it might have something to do with the SP that the RIAA curve
processes on the LP signal vs just the straight D to A conversion of the DAC.

am I on the right track ?? (no pun)
