HW: Motorhead Ritual

[mike c]

 I avoided this question as I don't totally have the answer-  but I will do
my best here-

it is my OPINION, that there are indeed SLIGHT (sorry for yelling Bill)
differences to the original mixes with Simon House on the track Motorhead-
whether or not it is due to resin in the (my) synapses or just record label
pressing inconsistencies, I am not certain at present.....

I can say this-  most of you know that the Dojo Warrior is taken from
vinyl, while the Griffin is taken from Atco (USA) master tapes.....

once again, it is my belief that there is a slight difference to the
overall "soundwave" between the 2 (whole albums, probably single as well),
and as such both are to be desired for the HW afficianado.....BUT!!!
little doubt that the Griffin issue is the MOST desireable of the 2.....
