    That's the one.

    Just popped it on and compared it to my Metronome German pressing, MLP 15 372 and it sounds better, smoother and more detailed, with nice lush bass.

    This is the German one, released in 1970.

    The broon yin released in 1977.

    No idea on any of them Andre. Maybe if they're still there when Marco goes back, he could check.

    I've got Colosseum 'Valentyne Suite' on CD - ESMCD 642 which sounds very good, so didn't bother looking.

    Genesis To Revelation I've also got on CD, Music Club MCCD 133 which also sounds very good.

    Yeh well everythings on CD for me now. The colosseum's expanded editions do sound great.

    I'm always intrested in vinyl but the cost of the albums i buy is far too high to even contemplate going back there.

    I used to love Grey and Pink on Brook St. I once went there with my son, and he was about to walk into a shop a door or so down before I stopped him and said he couldn't go into that particular establishment until he was 18!
