Recommended Pressing of Sgt Pepper's

I have the mid-1970s release on Capitol. I am ready to invest in a new pressing, and i could use a recommendation on which to look for. I am aware of the MoFi UHQR version, but the price tag on those is a bit extreme. I see that elusivedisc has a recent EMI remastered pressing for sale ($35), but i am not familiar with it.

Thanks for any guidance.

If you like this music, also try the soundtrack from the new Cirque de Soeil show, Love. I have the CD version, have seen the show live and do not know if it is on LP. It does some very wild things with the music from this album as well as other Beatles music.

The original UK pressing was very good. I owned a copy. German pressing and Dutch pressings were OK.
