A contributor of this blog asked for BOSTON albums, best sounding CD reissues. Boston’s third album “Third Stage“, is a superb piece of work but suffered from a flat sonic transfer to CD back in the day.

There has been very good reissues, especially the Japanese pressing on SHM-CD, but if your are looking for the purest sound closer to the original master tapes, this Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab – MoFi – limited edition on a gold disc is the one to get.
Regarded as the ‘ultimate listening experience”, these Ultradisc II technology discs are limited edition releases with each gold CD being mastered from the original studio master tape, rendering music reproduction as close to the actual recording session as possible.
Playing with reference sonics that elevate an effort forever prized by audiophiles, this spectacular version provides a clear, clean, transparent, and balanced view of an album regarded as a true classic.
