Pink Floyd The Wall--Which vinyl?


I have the opportunity to purchase early 80's Japanese vinyl in NM vinyl and Ex cover for about $40. I see that there is a new Capitol remaster for about $44. The new remaster has mixed reviews at Acoustic Sounds but some say it is better than the 80's Japanese and CBS (I think half speed).

Has anyone compared the two? I guess I could by both to compare and maybe sell the loser but I would rather not.

You can buy an orig us pressing for 1/4 that...and decide if its good enough....I certainty can...although I do have multiple digital copies...in short....hard to.find a bad v of this classic...
The Wall is without question a sonic marvel and probably Roger Waters most complex narrative...it is a deeply depressing piece...however...about every 6mos or so.I listen to.it in its full entirety...I love the ambition, scale, and production...they simply don't make em like this anymore...
