painttoad,
yeah, i have probably 3 dozen old punk cd's that i don't really give much playing time to anymore. i think it's for a couple of reasons. as i've gotten older my musical tastes have changed quite a bit. but every now and again i'll pull out an old social distortion or dag nasty cd and give it a listen. as much as i do enjoy the music, i find it much easier to listen to something that is well put together. that's not to say that the b&w's don't sound good with all music, but those old cd's just weren't recorded well. good for the garage, not so good for my listening room...

later,
simp
