Forgot to mention that I also have two original Japanese pressings from eighties - Spleen and Ideal by Dead Can Dance and Cielo e Terra by Al di Meola. The former sounds better than original UK and the latter than original US and Holland. Better in every respect. These are not Columbia recordings. And Japanese vinyl is so quiet. I don't have any pop records, so can't comment. I heard that Pink Floyd's Dark Side sounds superb on EMI/Toshiba pro vinyl, and that original Japanese Wish You Were Here is excellent though not as good as original Harvest. The original German I have is okay, nothing special.
Canadian LP pressing, how good?
Specifically interested in old Columbia 2 eye 360 sound pressing. Do they sound worse than 2 eye American? Anyone compared? One of the reasons I am asking is that in the past I always had good ebay transactions with Canadians, buying mostly European records. Master tapes of the recordings I am interested in were in the US. Canadian pressing of 'Bitches Brew' vs American, as an example. I got couple of American but none is exactly mint.
