Huh, perhaps this is why I find it sounds so good played through a t.v. from vhs tape.
So many of my favorite albums are considered "worst-produced" by somebody or other. I've taken shit from a record producer I didn't particularly like at all for playing Electro-Purra by Yo La Tengo for instance. Often the records that somebody hates production-wise that I still love are not the same records that other people hate for that same aesthetic reason.
Mind, I'm not belittling anyone for judging music aesthetically, there is no other way really, but I just don't find the judgements consistent in any sort of technical way. Attacking "production" often strikes me as a way to try and claim that one's own taste is backed up by some sort of technical reality, when more often, it's just taste.
