Customer Reviews
Cool LP-style Slipcase but not so great sound!
This is probably my favourine Bruce album and the tracks still sound as good as they always did but now we get them in a cool lp sleeve format.
Why just 3 stars then? Well, the recording isn't remastered and so the sound is about the same quality as the cheaper U.S. press that you can get you hands on elsewhere. So unless you are a very big fan of lp sleeves like I am, you may not want to spend the extra bucks on this.
Don't get me wrong, the album is still great with regards the tracks but I guess if you already have this, what's it going to take to make you wanna get another version of the same thing? I'm guessing it's either improved sound quality and/or improved packaging. This disc only fulfils one of these two criteria so you decide what you wanna do.
By the way, it's the same with the other titles in this format like "Born To Run" and "Darkness...Town" etc. just so you know. As I don't already have copies of these discs, I didn't mind too much but I don't know about you.
MUCH BETTER SOUND THAN OTHER REVIEW SHOWS
I purchased this disc after getting Tunnel of Love with the same Japan LP sleeve 2005 release. The Tunnel of Love had excellent sound quality so I figured that the Born in the USA if part of the same 2005 Japan release would have similar excellent sound quality. I was almost swayed against doing this by the reviewer indicating the sound was only as good as the domestic standard release. I took a chance and I am glad I did because the sound is excellent just like Tunnel of Love. This is an outstanding collection of Bruce tunes and it is great to hear them in such excellent sound quality. The sound is as at least as good if not better than the tracks from Born in the USA off of the Essential Springsteen 3 disc set. Hope this helps clarify for anyone with hesitation in getting this because of lack of quality mix in sound.
