Hi Steve,
Sorry for all the Steppenwolf questions...but..LOL! Was the Steppenwolf CD close to the first generation masters?
Remember Steve this is THE forum now! With access to the man himself is very much a good thing. So now all the questions come about that we could only have wondered or read about. Now we can ask you directly!
Thanks!

If I remember correctly both the old MCA CD version I did AND the MFSL version used the correct original stereo master mixes.

I never heard the MCA CD release as a finished product so I can't really comment on the sound. At the time, I remembered that the tapes sounded better than any LP or 45 I'd ever heard on the first album.

Always loved the foil cover on that one. Brings back memories of 1967-68 to me.:)

Those were the days of cover art! Thanks Steve.
