Anyone????

 

I'd say it's doesnt sound promising. Asian vinyl from that era is not usually very good.

 

I have VS of Pearl Jam. The quality is excellent! Equal, Jar of Flies from AIC

 

Given that the US is fairly easily obtained and sounds good, why would you want a South Korean pressing?

 

Because here in Argentina, the records are very hard to find and thet are very expensive. I found this release. Is because of that i made this question

 

i have it....i like it better than my US pressing.

 

And i have 3 records from south korea. Ride the lightning, Vs and Jar of Flies. They sound fantastic!!

 

Seriously? Is not a joke?!

 

Can you gimme more details about this release?

 

seriously...

i had 3 US pressings and the back to black reissue.
the btb reissue was drowned in bass and to dark sounding.
the 1st US press i bought was great...i loved it but there was a skip in nighttrain...so i sold it and bought another....well...it just didnt sound the same to me.... so then i bought another one...again..it wasnt the same...
so i bought this korean pressing....and i enjoyed more than the others...except for that one pressing i never wrote the matrix of.

also i like the cover better on the korea press.

 

I have a South Korean Rossington/Collins Band pressing that sounds great, and a South Korean sampler of "Double Live Gonzo" that sounds killer as well. I do have a US AFD with the sticker and the tattoo cover, and the BTB version that sits unplayed after a few spins. The US copy with the sticker kills the BTB, but it wouldn't surprise me if the Korean pressing is at least as good if not possibly better.

 

You have this release??

Ah... I had no idea you are in Argentina.

 

yes...bmgfl 5037

same cover also.

 

Thank you man! Im gonna buy it!

 

Finally i bought it! Its sounds great...but you dont feel if the volume is a little low?

 

i dont notice any low sound....sounds as loud as my other lps.

whats the matrix info on your vinyl?

mine is bmgfl 5037 A / bmgfl 5037 B with nothing else at all written on it... is yours like that?

 

Yes! I have the same one!

 

Asia is a big place. Japan and S Korea put out good vinyl.

 

Maybe now they do. Back when this album came out Korean vinyl was spotty at best -- Japan has always been good. The German 360 for AFD is one of the best sounding versions. They also use those metal parts for a recent US edition so it's not hard to find or expensive.

 

Just goes to show: fill out your location info, people!

 

I have a 1987 Korean pressing of David Gilmore's S/T album and it is fantastic.

 

I guess i need to keep an eye open for Korean pressings....
