Being a Van head and always mightliy pissed of with the awful cd quality of these, I took the expenxsive bite. £25 each. I'm glad I did. There the best cd remasters in his entire catalogue and are stunning.
Are these the 2008 Japanese editions? Astral Weeks being cat. no WPCR 75419 and Moondance WPCR 75420?
If so, and if this 180g vinyl edition doesn't mean there's a UK/US remaster just around the corner, I'd be seriously tempted to invest in the pair of those Japanese CDs.
Incidentally, that 180g vinyl Astral Weeks is £12.39 (+ £1.24 shipping) from Amazon Marketplace sellers:
