So I got this Canadian original pressing of the Bitches Brew. Well, I had to send it back because the records were not in good enough condition, but I listened to them. I prefer original American version because Miles's trumpet sounds more alive, though the Canadian is not bad at all. Yes, I did have this impression too that the Canadian was somewhat more refined and a little quieter. However, at least for this album, it was not the most important aspect for me. Now I think I am going to try original Japanese, this could be interesting. Japanese records of John McLaughlin and Mahavishnu Orchestra are so much better than American, British and Dutch. Didn't try German.
