Gute Soundqualität ( habe jedoch keinen Vergleich, zu älteren Pressungen ), wenig bis keine Nebengeräusche. Our full range of studio equipment from all the leading equipment and software brands. Guaranteed fast delivery and low prices. But despite their differences the 2 are still sort of similar in delivery, just with these few but character defining traits. Both are cut about equally as quiet, demanding you to crank the volume knob. The advantage then shows in the MoFi as the vinyl is extremely quiet, almost as dead silent and void creating as my Japanese Pro Use copy, but thats just because the Pro Use doesnt need to be played nearly as loud. Its only really noticeable at the start and end of songs on the 2016 issue but still a very real difference. This was NOT pressed in Denmark. No one recalls any Dark Side pressings being made and I have yet to see a danish pressing with the outer label dip meaning that those machines werent used here. It does, however, resemble many of the Sonet records from the early 70s pressed in the UK. Eg the theory that it was pressed at a non EMI plant (someone mentioned Decca) is a lot more likely. Rear top right corner has the text (IE 064 o 05249) between SHVL 804 and "stereo" centered (later copies have it left aligned).

The one Id give my nod to however is the MoFi for its impressive realism and smooth delivery. Despite the few shortcomings it probably has the best sounding version of Money that genuinely made me go "Holy shit..." and its the one I say is the essential AAA version for every Pink Floyd fan to own. The Dark Side Of The Moon" is the eighth studio LP to be released by Pink Floyd. It was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London, England and released in 1973. It stands as one of the most successful commercial recordings of all time, and has been released in many countries. In the U.S., the album has spent more time on the Billboard 200 album chart than any other release in modern history.

After enjoying this 2016 cut for several years and, in the spirit of finding the “iconic” analogue cuts, I bought NM copies of MoFi’s 1979 and Kevin Gray’s 2003 pressings. I admit I haven’t heard a UK OG pressing (I’m trying to get a German OG from Michael Ludwig), but this 2016 sounds cleaner, fatter, and clearer than both analogue cuts I own. That’s not to say it’s the best cut out there - obviously - but it is to say these 2016 remasters are phenomenal, especially if you just want great sounding pressings of these records for a great price. I also have the 2016 cuts of WYWH and had ANIMALS, before I replaced it with the “2018” remix (which is the best version of ANIMALS to my ears due to the remix). But the 2016 ANIMALS reissue did sound great for the original mix. This first edition was initially pressed by The Gramophone Co. Ltd., from July 1st, 1973 by its legal successor, EMI Records at the same plant.

One of the most iconic and influential albums ever, Pink Floyd’s ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ continues to find new audiences globally. This year, to celebrate its 50th Anniversary, a new deluxe box set will be released on 24th March. I think my MOFI pressing is much better but this is pretty good and clean, it just feels a little cold Any differences between the '79 and '81 versions are down to quality control and how many times the stamper had been used up until the point the individual record was pressed. This one or the '81 MFLS version are simply the ones to own.

The right front opening of the gate-fold cover is sealed with a fold over flap that is glued inside the opening. Creo que las dimensiones musicales, culturales y humanas que alcanza este disco son inalcanzables. Pink Floyd, con este álbum, nos demuestra que vivió 50 años adelante que el resto de los mortales. Prácticamente a 1 mes de cumplirse el 50 aniversario del álbum, creo, realmente, deberíamos alegrarnos y festejar (cada un@ a su manera) este salto artístico y cultural que nos identifica como humanos. I have asked a few business insiders here in Denmark… and none have ever heard of a Danish pressingplant doing annoriginal press of DSOTM. They have always guessed it to be more likely swedish actually (?!?!?) i dont know! I grew up listening to this on CD in the mid-to-late 90s and, while I haven’t heard any OG pressing of this, this 2016 BG cut is close to flawless and sounds absolutely wonderful. DSD pressed well is the future of reissues anyway, once all the tapes are dead, so we’ll probably shelve our analogue stridency.States "Pressed in Japan" on the LP label (see images), "imported pressing" and "Printed in the U.S.A." on spine of the sleeve. This 1979 version is certainly as good as the 1981 re-press I own. Both MFSL versions are ever-so slightly better than the best UK 2nd issue I own (A-3/B-2 matrix codes). After the UK 2nd pressing a very close 3rd place goes to the UK 5th issues (1977) mastered by Harry Moss. Front Cover: Very dark blue with prism. The front cover has been found with three different types of front openings:

PINK FLOYD – The Dark Side Of The Moon

To sum up, the release seems like a solid, high-quality pressing. It has the bottoms and high frequencies. The only downside is the flatness of the sound.Found a fairly clean copy of this (A3/B3) in a record store and just couldn't bring myself to not take it home with me. Even though I already owned the 2016 reissue and 2nd Japanese pressing, I wanted to see what all the hype was about regarding the early UK pressings. The 2016 reissue sounds terrific and the vinyl is very quiet, and the early Japanese pressing being fully analog definitely brings out more of the mid range, warmth, and dynamics that the recording has to offer. Now being able to compare the releases I have including this one on my own system its time to take a closer look at the differences. Release Information: Original stereo issue with a very dark blue cover, and a solid light blue triangle (prism) on the label with "The Gramophone Co., Ltd." text on the edge of the label. There are 3 sleeve opening variations. 1. The right front opening of the gatefold cover is sealed with the two sides glued together. 2. The right front opening of the gatefold cover is sealed with a fold-over flap that is glued inside the opening. 3. The right front opening of the gatefold cover is not sealed.

This is the special edition with A B on matrix (without stampers, mothers' letters, and without lacquer signs! The Dark Side Of The Moon album was partly developed in 1972 during live performances, and the band premiered an early version of the suite at London’s Rainbow Theatre several months before recording began. It is the eighth studio album by Pink Floyd, originally released in the US on 1 March and then in the UK on 16th March 1973. The new material was recorded in 1972 and 1973 at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London. The iconic sleeve, which depicts a prism spectrum, was designed by Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis and drawn by George Hardie. International E.M.I. catalog number 1E 064 o 05249 appears in small font and parentheses on the cover rear. The last and most important thing. Sound. If you put on a record and you don't understand what's going on, where all the bass and treble have gone, where the stage and space are - you have a Danish edition. It's almost an exact copy of the British original in everything. Except sound. Maybe it's a collectible item, but not a listenable one. If the MoFi rectified its slight slouching on bass plus vocal presence and punch it would easily rise to the top right away!
