In 1998, Mark Wilder remixed this album from the original multi-track tapes, using digital effects. This remix is what appeared on the "Complete Bitches Brew" CD boxset, and all subsequent issues on all formats. The only places to hear the original mix on CD, are the original late-80's Columbia purple bordered double CD (which sounds horrendous), or a mid-90s Japanese Mastersound CD issue (SRCS 9118~9). It is also in the new "Complete Columbia Album Collection" 70 CD boxset. Here's a webpage detailing some of the differences in the mix: http://www.shadowhillway.net/bbfx/ Here's a review of the new reissue by Michael Fremer: ______________________________________________ These files are 16-bit 44.1khz CD compatible

For anyone wondering, this sounds fantastic. I have many vinyl transfers from this uploader. He takes great care in sharing wonderful recordings..... and he's a heck of a nice guy!

Love the 192khz rip, but shame nobody is seeding this one. After all, I need a nice FLAC to be able to rip mp3s from, and 192khz won't work so well.
