I'd like to thank you all for these first comments, really highly regarded. Its important to remember that everything is relative. Check out individuals setups and gear profile. That can be helpful when assessing reviews. Folks who choose not to list gear profiles should not sway you at all. Some folks just like to rattle on.... Usually in the negative. I'll post some thoughts regarding these new reissues later this week. Ron No problem. Glad to help. Just a tip...be sure to ignore clueless people with Beatles avatars who think they rule the forum.

. Looks like WonkyWilly's post has been gorted already though. Somewhere else, he claimed heavy NR, and a gort asked him what his equipment was. He's definitely getting under their skin!

Seems like just another SHiTE to me. Remixes are bad, mono is good, Steve says '87 Beatles CDs are better so they are, Diament Zeppelin CDs are the best. Wow, what a rebel! I agree he's pretty obnoxious though.

A little off-topic, but I have it on pretty good authority that Brainwashed is none other than Dr. Ebbets (ret.) Have any of you heard this?

I don't think we ever reached a consensus one way or the other. I called Brainwashed out on it one time, a "care to speak to these rumours that yer the famous Dr Ebbetts?" kinda thing and he denied it of course. Personally I think he's too fuckin' dumb to be Dr Ebbetts. I don't think the real Dr Ebbetts would touch Hoffman's forum with a ten foot stylus. As for Wanky Willy, he came on the SHiTE scene at roughly the same tame as "bherberts", right at the height of the whole "2017 Sgt Pepper Remix" brouhaha...I'm convinced they're both trolls, nothing more, nothing less (shit, they could be one and the same for all I know). Annoying as fuck.

Wonky Willy was the last straw for me - the moment of clarity when I knew I had to exit the forum. He's not even that terrible, just another non-descript witless troll, clogging up valuable bandwidth. It's the bland, mindless repetition that ultimately wears you down over there.

I was gonna post the exact same thing. He's pretty much a simpleton and I doubt he'd be capable of putting together a mix tape, let alone a bootleg industry.

Just been reading some of the crap at Bootleg Zone - Strewth, that place has its fair share of retards.
I don't think brainwashed is that stupid - well not compared to likes of Bobby Morrow but he is most definitely a cunt.
He certainly claims to be very close to Dr Ebbett's (I bet he is a total cunt also) and could well be boring enough to be him.
I've not heard anything by Dr Ebbert's and don't want to either but a quick reading up on this alleged medical man makes me think he is to needle drops what Hoofer is to mastering.

From what I've read, Ebbetts was a compulsive liar and a thief. He'd borrow albums from fans around the world and not return them. He always claimed his needledrops were unEQ'd or tampered with, but this was also revealed to be bullshit. Another well known and respected needledropper Pbthal exposed his dodgy practices and that was pretty much the end of Ebbetts pirate business.
Brainwashed always claimed to "know" Ebbetts, and constantly dismissed any ideas that his needledrops were anything but flat transfers from the original albums. I remember him once saying - "Dr Ebbetts doesn't even have a graphic equalizer!" - seemingly oblivious to the fact that even the most basic audio editing programs have an EQ facility.
I've listened to many Ebbetts drops and they're all screechingly bright, with many tiny drop-outs where he has removed a click by literally replacing it with silence. A total amateur. And an arsehole.

I don't think branfart is Ebbetts anymore than he is Ron Furmanek or whoever it was that he was letting people think he was before he got called out by whichever Ron it was.

Wonky Willy is Pirate Nun? If I'm remembering correctly, Pirate Nun had a run in with someone at the old SC and left pissed off. He never bothered me there though. Oh and dr Ebbetts stuff sounds like ass. I never understood all the love for it.
