    *From the original master tapes -- AC/DC Back In Black is "perhaps" and Eagles Greatest Hits is "I *think*... but analog 'best of's were usually created by copying from the originals and assembling the copies into a new album so that would have been 1:1 from the originals..." - BD.

    Jim Croce: see above about "best of" compilations

    Genesis: "I did create CD masters for all --or almost all-- of the Genesis albums not long after I left Atlantic in the late '80s. Since I never received copies of pressings, I do not know if any of the masters I sent were ever used for CD production." - BD

    Led Zeppelin: "The difference is that most of the Zeps (with the exception of "In Through The Out Door" and "Coda" were from flat copies and not EQ'd Limited copies." - BD

    Genesis: "The Genesis (at least the ones I did when I was still at Atlantic, were mostly from EQ'd limited tapes but were to my ears, better done than the Nicks EQ'd limited tapes - and probably the mixes as well. (I hear the "cold edge" too - but would assign it a lower frequency than you did, perhaps around 5 - 8k.)" - BD

    AC/DC: "AC/DC's "Back In Black" and "For Those About To rock" were from untouched original mixes." - BD

    Bob Marley: "And all of the Marleys were from originals - no one's EQ or limiting for me to contend with." - BD

    Is there an easy way to identify a Diament The Yes Album? Looking at scans, the back artwork and booklet don't list him.

    Me too.

    It has taken a while, but I think I have at least half of these discs now. Still, this many years after he did the work, with all the changes in technology, high res, etc., the Diament is the preferred mastering for a vast majority of these albums.

    Isn't Bread Anthology of Bread (the older version of course) a Diament mastering as well? I don't see it listed.

    Unfortunately, there has been no confirmation from Barry Diament and based on what I found (below), he didn't do any Bread titles.

    Ricks never got back to me on that one. I'm not sure which would be his... The US SRC would make sense, but then again those Japan for US U2's were his :shrug:

    I have a question regarding Simply Red titles listed. Mine say mastered by Bernie Grundman in the inserts of A New Flame and Stars. Are there in fact Simply Red titles mastered by BD? Maybe reissues? Any information regarding those would be much appreciated Thanks very much.

    anyone knows if that Barry mastering was used on the final complete album CD (US/Japan 1st Press), any comparison with that EP?

    Is there a CD out there that has Diament's mastering of Phil Collins's Hello I Must Be Going that does not have the drop out right at the start of I Don't Care Anymore?
