Best copy of Wish You Were Here


What is the best-sounding vinyl pressing of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here?

I have quite a few copies of this record and agree with the previous posters that you can skip the domestic US issues, especially the half-speeds.

I rather like the early Brit Harvest pressing and it is quite available.

Happy listening.
BTW, of all the Floyd discography sites, I really like this one:

I hope that you enjoy it.
So what make the expensive Tom Port HOT STAMPER one sound better? He sure know how to market LP's though. Which pressing was is that you bought from him?
The Tom Port Hot Stampler sounds Rich, full body, vibrant with great clarity and presence. The energy and power are superb although one side clearly sounds better than the other. It is a Columbia USA domestic copy. The funny thing is that in the past I always thought my Japanese Master sound 1/2 speed was the best sounding copy of Pink Floyds masterpiece "Wish You were Hear" but in comparison the better sounding domestic copies make the Japanese 1/2 speed sound lifeless and pale.
