Description
At the very top of the Super LPs of The Absolute Sound for decades
matrix number (side 1): SHVL 804 A-10 stamper (side 1): Harry
side 2: S HVL 804 B-9 HTM
my system at the time was audiophile-level and my personal collection is now being auctioned off. DJ crap destroys records especially when scratching (you know that DJs routinely dump their destroyed scratching records) and I once dumped 100s of LPs that were damaged.
I used to play this for a number of reasons:
1. EMI records are far quieter than american pressings (the best US DSOTM is not even close to the worst UK) 2. the sound quality is just a bit/lot better than all the others including the newer remasters and the japanese pressings 3. you will note that none of these other versions are on The Absolute Sound's SUPER LP of all Super LPs Super di tutti Super
this one is a great version but if you want a merely good version my other DSOTM (US) is part of a $90 auction still available (for less money you get DSOTM and 17 other albums)
my personal copy is now up for sale: looking to sell everything I own
want a better copy? - fly to London (cheap airfares) - buy two sealed copies and all the other used copies you can find. back home - sell the used ones for a small fortune and if you sell one sealed coy for a second small fortune
these will be well packed: album then inner paper sleeve then LP in separate poly sleeve inside new box 32 ect. and in this case double boxed
and before you play this DSOTM, clean the LP, put on a new ML stylus and enjoy.
