Fair enough! Luckily most are easy to get after they come out and someone has noted the dead wax. Some of them are upgrades for me over older copies that are a bit beat up and I mostly only wanna upgrade if I know for sure that the pressings sound good. I did that with most of the Talking Heads catalogue since KG and Bellers cut them.
Good to know this one sounds great. My wife loves Pulp and I have been meaning to pick this one up.
Seems like Plaid Room had one copy of the anniversary pressing left so I ordered it. I have a reissue of Different Class. It’s meh. I think we picked it up somewhere for cheap. I do like this review of it though on Amazon:
This copy appears to be a 180gm 2002 edition. Listening to an OG at the moment sounds just fine so selling the SV is likely.
I’ve got the MOV, and if I recall correctly, it sounds pretty great

I hope Miles From Nowhere is played at my funeral. “Lord my body has been a good friend, I won’t need it when I reach the end.” Amen.I’m in a few songs …and wow…sounds great!!
Sad Lisa and Miles From Nowhere is
Speakers Corner is superb. I think the original recording, and early pressings, sound very good, but this pressing does what you’d hope they would do with a good recording to work from—next-level.
I’d tend to go SC over Friday Music when given the option on most titles.
It does sound great but I have gone through two copies so far and both had random repetitive clicking which is verrrrrrry annoying.I would be surprised if this hasn't been posted here, but we'll toss it up anyway just in case. Just got the Craft pressing of Chet Baker - In New York, and it sounds fantastic. Lacquer cut at Coherent by "Boom Boom", pressed at RTI and can still be had at retail. My only nit-pick, the cover image is a little sub-par, but that may be what the original looks like for all I know. Of course that takes nothing away from the important part, the music

Chet Baker In New York (180g LP)
Chet Baker's West Coast cool comes to the Big Apple on Chet Baker in New York. The project would be Baker's first -- in a four album deal -- with the Big Apple-based Riverside Records. The bicoastal artist incorporates his decidedly undernourished sound and laid-back phrasing into the styling of...
All the KG/Craft Chets sound fantastic! I grabbed the box set before they did the breakouts from an amazon buy 2 get 1 sale and love it.I would be surprised if this hasn't been posted here, but we'll toss it up anyway just in case.

I'm assuming I'd buy more than one!
But I definitely would want to buy an SACD of something I'm familiar enough with, and own on vinyl, to be able to make a comparison.
Just get the new Dark Side OTM SACD mix and go from there. Or at least, that's what I would do. Most clichéd answer ever, I know... but might as well go with a heavy hitter I say...
