I am pretty sure that we all regard our favourite performers or artists as 'special' in some way. And we want to be able to hear and enjoy their recordings in the best possible sound. As technology has developed, this desire has unsurprisingly led to older material being re-released in 'improved' form. This can include recordings which originally appeared as acoustic 78s and have been resuscitated - decades later - on CD or as audio files. Given the development of sophisticated noise reduction systems, such recordings can often sound far better than when they were released on the original shellacs.
