NOT REMASTERED

"As a big RPM fan , I was excited to see that the first album was getting a re-issue from MTM. The bonus tracks are cool BUT the entire album has NOT been digitally remastered and in fact , has been transferred from vinyl - not to mention the umpteen spelling mistakes - and I usually like MTM's products!

Fortunately in September of 2006 , guitarist Mark Gendel DID 24-bit digitally remastering of the original master tapes which came out much better than the MTM version. Mark also included RPM's second album 'Phonogenic' and a whopping 16-page booklet including lyrics and liners. Therefore the RPM 2 cd set is the DEFINITIVE collection for all Melodic Rock / AOR / RPM fans and can be found through Retrospect Records and here at Amazon very shortly. Both RPM albums are classic slices of AOR and should an essential addition to your melodic rock collection."

Super record
