I generally dont seek out imports as they are often overpriced IMHO...however...if I come across a Japanese Beatles,Floyd, etc...might bite!....who knows....
Dissapointed with import LPs.....
I recently bought the following used import lps:
Montrose(debut)-German pressing
Meatloaf-Bat out of Hell-dutch pressing. First off, i wasn't seeking import selections as these happened to be extremely clean copies for fair prices. However, sonically Im a bit underwhelmed. Bat out of Hell has very little bass and the Montrose LP has nowhere near the clarity of my original US pressing(albeit far quieter). Am I missing something? Others seem to rave about import vinyl but these purchases have left me gun shy about future import lps. I also have a Nazareth LP on PHillips(German) label that is a far cry from my original domestic release. ALso, these pressings seem a bit flimsy weigh wise. Any thoughts?
