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!!

I tried Japanese pressing Boston and it sounded more like juke box only pressings.

Hi all, I'm new and joined to discuss Boston vinyl quality. I find the self titled album hard to listen too, way too much wall of sound going on for me. I use a pioneer sx-980 with klipsch forte ii speakers and a pioneer 9500 EQ. I can describe the sound as shrill, bright, no depth, weak. mish mash all run together. Since it appears I am the only one hearing this do any of you have any advice please?
I get the best sound from Blondies greatest hits 180 gm album, original 1976 Blue Ostyer Cult, Jeff Beck wired to name a few. Thanks!

I just bought a mint Japanese 1976 1st pressing on Vinyl and it is horrible. DO NOT BUY!

 

I'm going to find an original 1st USA pressing now.
