Equally egregious is that the reissue is not the full length! I voted with my wallet - and my wallet stayed closed.

To Mr. Lynne and his label: please keep the original available. That's all we're asking!

(By the way gruen, how did you embed that image like that? Sharp and huuuge!)

I just uploaded the picture to imageshack and sized it for message boards. Then when posting the message, I clicked on the little yellow/green icon called "insert image" and pasted the direct link.

these images don't really say anything about the sound files they represent

i can easily make the first look like the second and vice versa

I've heard songs that turned out to be represented by my DAW like the one on the bottom. They wowed me for the first 1-2 minutes, but that wore off fast.

As for the version represented on top, I set it on repeat>track for the ride home!

Other than zooming, how do you make the bottom one look like the top?

Not meaningless unless you alter them after importing such as zooming like Dave said. The images represent less dynamics.

The images posted were very similar to the images I saw when importing to Wavelab.

i don't see how my picture is meaningless. those waves sound exactly how they look.

You can add an aggressive high pass filter to a brick and when it's rendered, will redraw with proper peaks and valleys. Sometimes you see it in mp3's that are filtered heavily.

Well, anything with phase-shift will "make" signals above the clipping, but they wont turn the bottom one into the top!
