Hi. Yes it is a bit of a crap shoot. Some better some not. I got one Super Audio CD that is clearly better than the originals. It is "the Wonderful Sounds of Female Vocals" by Analogue Productions. LPs are also available but I didn't get them. They didn't alter the sound any but did a little cleaning up of obvious noise. Especially in the lowest bass range. Considering that some of the tracks are over 50 years old they did a great job. I had to wait for several months to get the disks and they were a bit costly but IMO worth it. I would be curious to hear how the LPs sound. The Julie London tracks are stunning. If you like female vocals this is one to check out. Be sure you have a machine that can play it. Not all will do SACDs. There may be a non-SACD version but I am not aware of it.
