  Remaster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remaster (and its derivations, frequently found in the phrases digitally remastered or digital remastering) is a word and concept that emerged out of the digital age, although it had existed before then.
A couple of the reasons for remastering engineers to remix elements of a recording include a first-time stereo mix of a particular song where previous releases were only in mono and/or fake stereo (a.k.a.
Also many remastered CDs from the late 1990s onwards have become casualties of the loudness war, where the average volume of the recording is pushed ever higher at the expense of dynamic range.

 Dave Hopkins: The Band Remasters
In addition, material from liner notes or gatefold sleeves which was inexplicably omitted from the previous CD versions of these albums has thankfully returned, including the "Next of Kin" photo, the interior Stage Fright photo, and the lyrics to Cahoots.
The B-side version was in mono, but we now have a remastered stereo mix which pans guitar and organ into the left channel, piano and drums to the right.
With a very different feel-and a different lead vocalist-from the live cuts included on Before the Flood and Watkins Glen, this heretofore unknown studio version of "Endless Highway" dates from the Cahoots sessions, but was rejected for the album (according to Robbie Robertson's comments in the liner notes) because it didn't fit thematically.

The slickly packaged set offers a solid introduction to the band's work, with two discs of remastered, sonically upgraded album tracks, plus a third disc of interviews with surviving bandmembers Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones.
Indeed, the 3CD "Remasters" (two music discs plus a third interview disc) provides near-perfect middle ground between the group's collected works box and 4CD box, and the inferior "Early Days" and "Latter Days" one-disc sets.
By the mid 70's "Stairway to Heaven" was a staple of midnight rock radio, and already acquiring the varnish of an FM "classic." But by then I had already lost touch with their album output.

The 80’s were very good to this band and fittingly they decided to remaster their entire output of that period, a whopping seven year span in which the band established themselves as one of the premier rock trios in the world.

 Boston Remasters
The remastering was done by the brain behind Boston, Tom Scholz.

 Pink Floyd remasters - Hydrogenaudio Forums
If you already own the 1997 Columbia remasters, there is no need to upgrade; they use the same digital transfers as the 1992/1994 EMI releases - and so, for that matter, do the 1992/1994 Capitol discs - which were in turn licensed to Columbia for their 1997 reissues (...
Here's the story: Hipgnosis was in the process of tweaking all the Floyd art for the reissue campaign (which is why several covers across the series have subtle differences in color, configuration, and design from the original sleeves) and decided the Dark Side plain transparent prism needed an overhaul.
So barely a year and a half after the album was remastered, the same digital remaster was re-released with a new copyright date, allowable since the artwork (and therefore the configuration) had changed.

The next batch of remastered Tull classics are released (April 2004 in USA, UK already released).
Yet, the album heralds Tull's early 1980's segway into electronic music and themes such as the Cold War and economic recession.
The film mixes live footage of the "A" tour with various videos including the webmaster's favourite, "Sweet Dream," with Ian appearing as Aqualung and Dracula and apparently unintentional nods to various Tull songs and albums.

Aspinall added that the company is planning to have the entire catalogue revamped before finally making the albums available online: "I think it would be wrong to offer downloads of the old masters when I am making new masters.
