Arrow Re: Mastering on 2019 Reissues?

I didn't get the reissues but if you have a decent record player and speakers/headphones you should be able to do an A/B listening comparison. Paul's Boutique should be the easiest one to discern. If you want to get scientific and have a way to record the audio to your computer you can record a track from each issue and compare the wave forms.

The two disc Paul's Boutique should sound louder and the bass frequencies should be better due to being spread out over more space on the wax. As long as you're not using a Crosley record player with a garbage needle and junky speakers you should be able to pretty easily tell the difference.

Thinking about this now, I might need to pick up that Paul's Boutique. This may be the first time the remaster has appeared as a two-LP set, no?
