Posted: 1/8/14 at 5:58pmIf you're a fan of the OBC "Follies" and you don't already own the remastered version - GET ONE! it is absolutely breathtaking in clarity and as liner notes put it "depth, vocal and orchestra blends". I have heard the vinyl many times and the CD of course. However this was a whole new experience. I am just bowled over. It supposedly has been limited to 1000 copies for some reason so hopefully any who wants one can still get one. ( No - I am not a salesman pushing my product - just a huge fan of the show I saw in Boston on its way to Broadway.)

I believe poster "bk" supervised the remastering. He may have knowledge of where copies may still be found.
For the record, everything jemjeb2 says is true.

Posted: 1/8/14 at 7:34pmKritzerland has issued a second edition of 1000 copies and it's in stock and ready for ordering on Bruce's site. That said, I have never heard such a vast improvement in sound quality. The remastering job is amazing and though I was overly familiar with the cast recording I was hearing new things I had never heard before. It's worth every penny. Get it while you can.
