Who did original mastering?

I read on the AS site that Guthrie did the remastering. Did he do the original pressing? I don't remember; have to go home and look tonight. I couldn't figure it out looking at Wiki, either.

Preorders are up at Amazon and Acoustic Sounds, and will come in just about every format imaginable...and more.

All vinyl will be pressed at QRP for worldwide distribution, but there will be dedicated releases by Sony and AP.

Here's the skinny:
Superdeluxe has all of the various preorder links for every format:

Acoustic Sounds and Elusive Disc actually announced AND took pre-orders for this title 2 years ago. I have been waiting for a release date for so long, I had almost given up on it until Chad announce the 7/24 date a couple of months ago. Older pre-orders are still in their queue.

Did a brief, side 1 only, comparison between the original and the QRP pressed reissue. I felt the original has a richer texture, sounding more "real", but the reissue, on a couple of tracks, exhibited better vocal intelligibility at the expense of sounding more "hi-fi-ish". Certainly I have to really sit down and listen to the whole set and reserve judgment until I've done that.
