(Funk, Soul, Disco) [LP][16/44.1] Vaughan Mason & Crew - Bounce, Rock, Skate, Roll - 1980, FLAC (tracks), lossless

Massive! This is probably the best-ever album of rollerskating grooves -- and is the most famous entry into a short-lived funk genre that sprung up around the rollerskating craze of the late 70s and early 80s. The rollerskate sound took a tight stepping funk groove from earlier years, and mixed it with the extended instrumental style of club music -- creating a sound that was a mix of funk and disco that worked perfectly for skating around a track, and which had a huge influence on the beat of early hip hop. The centerpiece of the album's the massive sample track "Bounce, Rock, Skate, Roll" -- an instantly recognizable number that features tight vamping guitar and good choppy rhythms. The cut's offered up here in 2 parts -- and the rest of the record's just as great, with titles that include "Roller Skate", "We're Gonna Funk You Up", and "Thinking About You Baby".

To clean the vinyls I use the Knosti Disco-Antistat record cleaning system.
To remove the surface dust I use the Nagaoka Rolling Cleaner.
The vinyls are ripped through this equipment:
- Shure M97XE cartridge & stylus
- Technics SL-1210-MK2 turntable
- TCC TC-750 Phono Preamp
- Creative USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX Sound Card
The files were ripped using GoldWave or CoolEdit 2000 and saved as WAV files.
The sample rate of the wav file is 44.1 kH and the resolution is 16 bit.
REMASTERING: Only if it's necessary, removing click & pops with Cool Edit 2000 or Wave Lab 4.0.
COMPRESSION: FLAC Fronted or Monkey's Audio.
Each file is separate. As they're vinyl rips I didn't use EAC and, therefore, there's no log file.
===> WHY ONLY A 16bit AND NOT A 24bit RECORDING? <===
I am not an audiophile. I have tried to understand which it was the better resolution to rip my vinyls.
I have found this wonderful guide: Transferring LPs to CDR: Some Advice
This is the point about the question "Is 16 bit Recording Enough?"
