No.1 prize has to go to that RSD Orange vinyl edition of YES debut album, talk about dull sounding. I ended up buying the 2015 Music on Vinyl edition that was like a revelation in comparison. I dont like buying expanded Vinyl editions but i had no choice. Still think the crossover Atlantic pressing from the early 70's sounds best. But me being me i have a serious OCD issue where i need all brand spanking new
Biggest disaster this year was paying £35 for the last remaining YES - FRAGILE [2016 Kev Grey for Cohearent] to find it warped. sadly it was keep it or do without. Only LP i have where i need to clamp it.

Only LP i have where i need to clamp it. Just mentioned that elsewhere re coloured vinyl. I think it's the warm balance of your system. It's AAA and MOV is digital and DMM. MOV can do a nice pressing but for me would be on the bright side and still sound a bit digital. Usually only buy MOV when the recording is digital or otherwise unobtainable for sensible money. I have some later MOV Yes albums that only came out on CD at the time. Can't complain about the quality of those. |

Honestly that coloured YES sounds absolutely shite compared to the early 70's pressing i have. The MOV re-issue sounds fine to me.That Expanded MOV does not take a brain surgeon to realised its what the CD is with the bonus tracks on disc two.

I will agree it's not up to an original UK. Probably from a US production copy tape. Found turning up the volume helps. KG cut so source most likely. Also tapes are 50 years old.

I’ve only bought a handful, or two, zero issues.
