just found out it's the 73 pride lp compilation thing called "lou reed and the velvet underground" (with the swans on the cover). anyone have it? is it worth hunting down?

its worth it for the 'better' mixes - but a quick search *wherever* will get you a swan mix sister ray

The Universal Masters Millenium collection has the swan mix of Sister Ray:

If you don't mind Ebay, there's one up for auction now.

There was another one recently (wasn't cheap though I don't think), so they are out there.

The ones that are available second-hand on Amazon at the moment start at US$86.00 and go up to US$119.00!

hi all,
yeah, i have the SR swan mix but was wondering if the whole album was done like that. the MFSL mix *is* great, isn't it? and i think i'm gonna make a play for the ebay piece (found it yesterday; couldn't remember the name of the swan cover album).

thanks for your help, everyone!

cheers.

I'm know it's been said before in these pages but these aren't different mixes - they have been mastered differently. I do want to hear the MFSL WLWH though, as they're said to be uncompressed mastering jobs. I just saw one place asking $450 for it and haven't seen it for under $100!

Is there any place to get illegal FLACs of the MFSL version?

Just saw this on eBay:

VELVET UNDERGROUND White Light/White Heat CD MFSL GOLD for $23.50 -- url below:
