Hello,
May be this issue has been discussed here a zillion times, so I ask for indulgence.
I just bought a surprise lot of 25 records and after checking it, I discovered that the Christopher Cross that has the pink flamingo on the cover was on the lot. I was very happy because this record is on my favourite 100 list. Hoping that this new copy was better than my previous one I decided to do an A/B test.
To my surprise I noticed that the colors of the cover were pretty different, changes during production said to myself.
Ok, I can live with that, it's the wine not the bottle that matters.
The real problem started when listening to both records. The audio quality differences were completely noticeable. One was very dull and lifeless while the other was bright and a pleasure to listen.
I made some comparisons in the past among US and Canadian prints, just slight differences then, but this really caught me by surprise.
Both of them were US copies, same serial BSK3383, same production year but for sure they weren't the same record.
Regards
Pete
