Ha Ha! I still can't find the fecking price for the Saucerful remaster. I got the Japanese WB Astral Weeks/Moondance and they were superb but set me back £30 each.

Crikey! Nah. I'll stick to my mono Piper remaster. I reckon it's only a matter of time before EMI do a full catalogue remaster. Let's hope they don't fuck most of it up like The Beatles stereo ones with all that dreadful vocal/instrumental separation that made most of it completely unlistenable on headphones. Strawberry Fields Forever was particularly abused.

Not sure if this is the edition you are after, but..

These would seem to be for the Toshiba edition of 10 years back, but probably as well to check with the seller first.

The possible problem here is that these could be fakes of the Toshiba edn. They look correct, but 'tis not the same as holding in your hand. I did buy a genuine Principal Edwards Japanese Ed made by Universal from Finland, but that was 6 years ago, Russian Fed and Italy the home of the bootlegger has my alarm bell ringing. Besides they are too cheep

You could be right. Guess with any of these there has to be a certain amount of "Buyer beware" notices.

these Toshibas are not as boosted

as the recent SHM's and current brickwalled cd's/lp's

so one man's great sounding cd may not be another's

it would suck to spend serious $$$ to wind up hating the sound
