MFSL moody blues: are they all so good?

I just picked up a MFSL copy of Days of Future Past and was astonished at how much better it sounded than my original deram copy from the late sixties. Are all the MFSL editions of the other 6 classic albums as good i.e. so much better than the original (US) pressings?? If so i had better start saving since they are very expensive on the used market

I'll take the first pressing Derams and Thresholds any time.

I was blown away by the MOFI of "Days" when I first heard it. Compared to the U.S. Deram pressing,which is horrible, the MOFI is hugely better. The British Deram is another story. BTW, the title is "Days of Future PASSED" not "past".

I have the TP UHQR from MOFI and it is better than both the UK Deram and the reg MOFI. I listen to both the UK and the japanese releases more than either of the MOFI releases. I do not play the UHQR often because I do not want to damage it. I always seem to damage albums I really like and with this one I have no backup.

My first pressing Deram copy of "Days" is spectacular. Brilliantly clear and dynamic.

YMMV
