Just to ask... Do any of you think this one done by George Piros would sound better than the 1st UK pressing done by HW? (not Howie Weinberg, someone else - the 1st UK is praised also, but I live in the US 😊) REALLY appreciate any thoughts or input, thanks!
What I'm listening on:

Edited one year agoHaven’t heard any other variations, but agree with the others, this one sounds fantastic. What a great record this is! -
Edited 2 years agoIs this the promotional release, or a regular release? I have this but it is not a promo copy. Thanks! -
