Audiophile Boston pressing?


Can anyone advise whether high quality pressings of Boston's first two albums are available? I can't find that MFSL, Simply Vinyl or other such companies has ever offered these albums. Failing that, is anyone aware if 180g pressings are available? I have seen a Japanese pressing or two offered on eBay, but was not sure of the quality. What is the best example available?? Many thanks!!

The first, self-titled album was reissued and remastered a number of times, including by some of the 'audiophile' labels you mention. See, http://www.discogs.com/Boston-Boston/master/59355
However, the original album was mastered by Wally T, who was a formidable mastering engineer, so I wouldn't disregard an original pressing. I suspect those are easy to find in the bins, condition may be another matter. Good luck.
I agree. Sometimes the best sounding records for music like this, is to just find an old original copy in good shape.
I would agree. The originals are more than sufficient. Not sure if the did a half speed master back in the day.However, at a couple bucks a pop, nick up a few original s.
not biggie to find near-mint original pressings for $3...5. it's a very common record
I have a CBS mastersound half speed mastered of that LP,a very welcomed addition to my collection years ago,haven't played in in a couple years but very impressive sound.I just pulled it out of my rack to play tonight again.
