Agreed. Never understood it myself. Love MM, and the only albums mix that sounds somewhat muffled to me was ADTOE and that was everything, not just the drums. The version of the self titled I had also seemed to have this, however, I went back to iTunes and got the lossless version, and it was an incredible improvement over whatever version I originally had. It sounds great, and the drums are terrific in that mix for DT. To me anyway, but I’m an old fart… 😉
