I just bought my first "NOS" cd. It's Wes Montgomery's So Much Guitar 24k Gold CD remastered by Steve Hoffman.

I started to search around and many artists I like have cd's released by DCC.

I hope to hear a good diference comparing to my other Wes' cd's.

Any other headfiers have or collect DCC Records releases?

Let's use this thread to talk about them!

I actually prefer DCC to MFSL in most, if not all, cases.

My current DCC storage has:

1. Band on the Run [DCC GZS-1030]
2. Eldorado [DCC GZS-1041]
3. Endless Summer [DCC GZS-1076]
4. Highway 61 Revisited [DCC GZS-1021]
5. Hotel California [DCC GZS-1024]
6. Master of Puppets [DCC GZS-1133]
7. McCartney [DCC GZS-1029]
8. A Night at the Opera [DCC GZS-1144] (way better than the MFSL release because it manages to "smooth out" the sound and does its best to avoid a master tape glitch where a piano part in Bohemian Rhapsody is distorted and crackly)
9. Parallel Lines [DCC GZS-1062]
10. Pet Sounds [DCC GZS-1035]
11. Ride the Lightning [DCC GZS-1136]
12. Ringo [DCC GZS-1066]
13. Soultrane [DCC GZS-1046]
14. Spirit of America [DCC GZS-1089]
15. The Summit: In Concert [DCC ARZ-102-2]
16. Their Greatest Hits (1971-1975) [DCC GZS-1039]
17. 24 Karat Hits! [DCC GZS-1117]

Hopefully most of the album names are familiar; saves me time from mentioning the artists as well.

Heck, what can I say: if I see a DCC disc, I'll take it, even if I never heard the artist before. DCC simply sounds more spacious and real to my ears compared to MFSL releases.

I'm a big DCC fan and also prefer over Mofi. Steve seems to make every project a labor of love and is no doubt one of, if not the finest in the business.

I have and love lots of his compilations as well as many other titles. Listening to DCC cds makes one hear what they have been missing for a long time.

I only have 2 DCC 24K gold CDs....

24 Karat Hits - Elvis
Debut album from Van Halen

 

[omegaman]

I have a few MFSL LPs but I really fancy some DCC Doors LPs. I will add it to my ever growing list.

Why did you have to start this thread

My wallet can't take any more.

I only have 2 too

Bad Company - Bad Company

The Doors - L.A. Woman

 

[bperboy]

Where do you guys find these CDs? Ebay?

 

[jilgiljongiljing]

Yup

 

[Voltron]

DCC was awesome, Manuel, you are onto something good if you can find more at reasonable prices. Sadly, I was not "in the know" when these were being released. I have the collection called Club Verboten, which is very cool, and Steve Hoffman autographed it for me at HeadFest last year. I also have some burned CDs of Van Halen, Queen, Supertramp, Harry Belafonte, Eagles, and the amazing Nat King Cole.

 

[utep10]

Nat King Cole - Love Is The Thing
Elton John - Greatest Hits I
Van Halen I
Harry Belafonte - Jump Up Calypso
The Eagles - Their Greatest Hits
Groove On! Compilation

All are phenomenal sounding!

I got my Elvis and Van Halen DCC CD, believe it or not, from Best Buy. Back then, BB carried a limited selection of titles. When I purchased my DCC CDs, they were about $35.00/each. I remember the cashier giving me a strange look as I pay for them.

Besides the above titles I mentioned, I also have a sealed Doobie Brothers gold CD from Audio Fidelity, the "child" of DCC. Of course, mastered by Steve Hoffman.

 

[gordolindsay]

If your wallet can handle it, pick up as many as you can!! It's the best any of the titles will ever sound and they're not getting any cheaper.

I have a few of them, but wish I could afford a ton more.

If you want to find them (DCC's) at a more reasonable price, check out Steve Hoffman's own forums. It's stevehoffman.tv.

 

[jilgiljongiljing]

That wouldve been so awesome if I could just drive down to BB and pick one up...sigh...

 

[LFF]

I have almost all of them. I am missing about 10 I think.
