DSOTM - PF

Hals den - your a very naughty boy! 'Stealing' other good people's DSOTM LP's - just joking man!

DSOTM must be in every audiophile's record shelf - and on the ttable. Comprende?

Kind regards,
Dewald V

I have 15 copies of DSOTM. My favs:

Japanese Pro Series Vinyl, EMI EMLF97002
Japanese 30th Anniversary CD/SACD, CAPITOL TOGP15001
UK Vinyl First Release, HARVEST SHVL804
US Vinyl First Release, HARVEST SMAS11163
UK Vinyl First Release Quad, HARVEST Q4SHVL804
US 30th Anniversary CD/SACD, CAPITOL CDP 72435821362

These are all superior to the 30th Anniversary vinyl and MOFI vinyl releases IMO.

Interesting, the cheap used copy I referred to in my post above is a Canadian Harvest SMAS11163. I agree with Audiofeil, as I stated, that it sounds better than the 30th Anniversary.

Hdm,
Your "Wally" copy was actually released in 1980/81 during the 4th pressing. These codes should be on the deadwax:

SMAS-1-11163 F-67 #6 Wally / SMAS-Z-11163 G69 #3 Cole

There should also be a bar code on the rear.

Audiofeil:

No bar code on the rear. Deadwax on side one is:

SMAS-11163-A-3 T6 2

Side 2 deadwax is:

SMAS-2-11163 7 F-54 Stamped "Mastered by Capitol" followed by a "Wally" signature in the deadwax.

Any ideas? Jeez, I gave it to my son. It better not be the best pressing I'll ever be able to find!!!
