“The soundtrack was remastered from the original tapes and sequenced for the first time in the order Fiedel originally intended.”

Despite the undeniable coolness and haptic advantage, from a technical standpoint, it’s as stupid as it can get to release anything still on vinyl these days.

I’d prefer the original tapes simply recorded at 44.1 kHz / 16-Bit and that’s it. Good old audio-cd. No fancy remastering, no annoying dynamic range compression, no gimmicks, thanks.

Would you all agree that they now have NO EXCUSE for not being able to give us a proper remastered original mono mix?

I’d say it’s virtually never the question of ability but stupidity. Of course they can, but often enough they don’t want, for whatever dull reason.
