i've had good luck with japanese pressings. search the records listing on ebay, using "OBI" or "japan" or "Japanese" in the search field...
How to find better pressings
I finally heard what all the LP enthusiasm was about - new cartridge in my old Thorens, got my Cary preamp fixed and wow, it was a whole new experience. I had just heard a live choral performance so it was easier to compare sound to real music. I was staggered by what I (finally!) was hearing in my home.
Now I realize that there are a special few albums that I really love, and would be willing to pay a premium for excellent recordings of these.
Thus, my question: how does one learn about pressings and releases about a specific pieice of music? I suspect there are no easy answers to this except to spend time at it, but any tips would be appreciated.
