I bought the Sheffield D2D James Newton Howard & Friends when it first came out and it was noisy. My brother always loved that LP and he went through some trouble and expense to track down a sealed copy so I could transfer it to tape for him. Guess what? The sealed copy was noisy on the very first play which bummed my brother out.
What is new in my music library? (recent purchases I enjoy)

Seems to me the only difference between the production copies is that the master is used to make the production dub and the customers get a copy of that. One more generation over the master dub option. iME there is not much difference sonically between a first gen of a master and a second gen of the same master. $150 vs $400 for essentially the same quality music.
I just got this in and it is great. Seller said it was near mint but it has quite a few scuffs and on one side a scratch all the way across on the other. I ran it through the AD and gave it a listen. Surprisingly quiet and not too many pops. It was only $10 including shipping, so I can't complain too much.

Perfect. Now we have an excuse for that long delayed listening session. PM me and we'll figure out a time...

Glad everyone is liking my Sheffield Lab Harry James LP suggestion. Lloyd, do post when you get your digital version, I will be interested to hear your thoughts.
Now, IF I could just source another M&K For Duke in Mint condition at a reasonable price....Since we are talking DtoD LP's,I like 'For Duke" a LOT better than Harry James; BUT they are both great.

Now that we are on the subject of D2D records, here is one I picked up a couple of weeks ago that is very nice. Take The "A" Train by The Third. A Japanese D2D with Japanese musicians. Very good sonics and the music is good as well. It was distributed by Audio Technica.
Another very good D2D that Gary Koh just mentioned in another thread is Les Brown goes direct to disc. Gary and Joe turned me onto this one some time ago. Think I will get a back up before the prices go up.
