    Recently picked up a very clean VG++ copy at a flea market for $7.50, in my humble opinion this is much better than my Giles Martin remastered LP. The music really comes alive here with a good bottom and a liveliness not found on the remastered vinyl.

      I love my copy. I imagine a UK original is better but I have absolutely no issues with this pressing. Bass is unbelievable.

      Update: the original Japanese pressing is the one to get, this is a really good sounding copy but the Japanese LP is superior

        I've made a comparision with the -2/-1 1970 Uk pressing (vg copy) and with this release (vg+ copy). For the canadian, the pressing doesn't have the presence of the Uk, but the Canada has more punch to it.
        The canada has more a clear bass than the Uk. It's a great copy that you can find and it's fun to listen to.

        For the Uk, the bass is louder, the presence is wider and with comparaison the instrument and vocal sound more natural.
        The piano on "You never give your money" sound more real.

        Stil, the best is the Uk, but the Canadian is very good for a fair price and I suppose that it's better than the US pressing.
