Comment DR14 results are AFTER removing pre-emphasis with sox (i.e. " sox <file>.flac <file>-deemph.flac deemph") Pre-emphasis confirmed using Linux cdrdao tool. PRE_EMPHASIS is reported in CD TOC for all tracks. Disc year is estimated 1984 based on research from Discogs but there is some ambiguity. All markings (catalog, matrix, printed material) appear to be identical between original 1984 release and 1988 reissue with the exception of clear printing on CD hub. The 1988 reissue is supposed to show "Made in USA - Digital Audio Disc Corp". This CD shows "Made in USA - Digital Audio Disc Corp" on hub, but the track lengths reported by DR14 are different than either Discogs entry! The track lengths on this CD most closely match the track lengths on the original 1984 release (all tracks match exact length or are within 1 second) while the 1988 release has some tracks that are 3 or 4 seconds shorter than this CD. So hub would indicate 1988 release, but track lengths are more like 1984 release. Wikipedia indicates that DADC was already making discs by 1984, so it is possible this is a third release made in USA but using release more similar to original 1984 release.
