Has anyone a-b'd the remastered Graceland to the original? Since this is such a great SDA cd I figure I'll get the remastered version but was wondering if it is a lot better than the original.
Any opinions?
Thanks, Mike

Graceland is one of my favorite albums of all time but I have not heard of any new issues...? Anyone else?

According to Amazon.com, it was remastered in 2004 with 3 bonus tracks:

One the best albums ever made. I'd love to hear this on SACD.

Also one of the "recommended" albums in the SDA Owner's Manual. :)

Hmm. I'm going to have to look out for this album. I like most of the stuff I've heard from Paul Simon after he split up with Art Garfunkel (liked them together, too). We have a few of his CD's, but not this one. It's definitely on my list, now.
