OMG, is it ever!
It may not be easy to know who was the mastering engineer of a
recording especially all we do is get material from a stream
these days, but who did the mastering could be all the
difference in quality.
I'm the owner of a few thousand CDs since the advent of the CD
player. In time I discovered a common denominator among the
best sounding CDs - the best are mastered by Bob Clearmountain
or Bob Ludwig, or Bernie Grundman. This information was easily
noted on physical CDs but not so much now from streaming
sources. That's sad because anything by those guys no matter
what the genre - was/is great music.
