Default (O/T) - Why do SACDs sound better? (Soft troll)

A certain Keith G, of uk.rec.audio "fame", writes :

I'm not in a position to judge - my most 'recent' vinyl is 'O Borther Where
Art Thou' and that has been made to sound 'Old Timey'. Recent(ish) Yello,
Floyd, Vangelis, etc. all sound fine to me.....


On some of Vangelis' great earlier albums (China, Heaven & Hell, Mask,
especially Albedo 0.39) the distortions caused by the LP cutting master
process are very clearly audible on the CD, although China isn't so bad.
These classic albums are *crying out* to be remastered...
