I think we can use one of the old formats ( modified ) that they used to use in the HI-Fi Magazines:
First I think we need a separate sub forum maybe ( Perhaps a title like
classic pressings /burnings of classic albums ( Something like that )
a brief description of the band/ maybe potted history
a brief description of the album
Description of the format( brief ! CD , Vinyl 150g SACD , DVDA 45 RPM album set etc
A piece about the origin of the edition : country label ( version of the label) code etc ( So that you could recognize the edition to look for.............
Why this version is a superior version ( Direct cut, DMM,,DDD CD 150g vinyl, classic first pressing on a decent nut of vinyl , CD from first generation master tapes, remix etc etc)
Technical quality scale 1 to 10 ( scale for analogue and a scale for digital recordings )
Special features : booklet ......recording data
Any other relevant data extra tracks etc
Maybe a picture of the sleeve/cover .:nod:
I don't think we are looking for run of the mill things here but; more a guide to the really excellent things that are out there ,
I don't expect to review everything on this thread but, the feel should be that if you are interested in this sort of thing and you want to find real audio masterpieces then this would be the blue ribbon section to look in.

Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )
