Yeah, the date says 94 so this must be the Geffen masters, no? It's quite secretive as to who mastered the Geffen re-issues, it seems. I think they sound pretty good, especially for the pre-re-mastering fanatical time! LR, is there much info on the creation of BMR? ie. the segues, the convertion to CD (when it was a fairly new format), whether it was mastered in whole blocks (ie. side A and Side B), as opposed to each track separately then somehow spliced together (pre-computer editing?). It's my favourite album of all time and an extremely unique one, at that. It feels like a single piece of work (like a symphony with 8 movements), as opposed to a collection of songs simply written/recorded around the same period. I wish this received the deluxe re-issue with liner notes, pics, etc... Amazing stuff!
