~ it's a mellow sounding album that should kick ass ~
all things considered, probably the Hoffman/Gray 2011 remaster on LP which I've heard only a limited amount of times and don't own, my original 1977 LP not far behind. Each (plus those early CDs) would make the hd track / deluxe versions sound dynamically castrated by comparison.
as for cd, need a revisit, esp when it comes to the added reverb. The DR values on the early CDs are all quite high. Equalization methods per pressing would require a bit of plotting and leg work.
for those interested in such things ...
