I COULDN'T DISAGREE WITH YOU MORE.

I too have gone through the same struggle to find the highest quality of my favourite albums. This one included.

I have to say that you can skip all of this by getting the HDtracks version at 24bit. If you have your computer set up to play audio at 24bit or higher going out to HDMI(for up to 192khz) or Optical (for up to 96khz).

SO I have a 24bit/96khz vinyl rip, I own the album.
I have the 24bit/192khz from HDtracks
and the SACD played though my Oppo.

All of these sound amazing. It is incredible that recording technology was this good in those days. Too bad so many great albums were recorded on inferior setups.

So, HDTracks high res digital versions if you have the setup.
If you don't then the SACD version is fabulous.

I have the album on vinyl only, but have both the Mofi and an original 1st pressing Deram from the UK, and the Deram is slightly better, but everyone's system, room, and hearing differs, so youre result may vary.

Unfortnately...the analogue master is a very muddy recording.....which is why many prefer the digital remasters
