I have the latest Captain High pressing (CH 4815-1). I think it sounds very good, in the sense that it's a very clean pressing, but yes, probably cut using a CD master. I can't compare it to any other versions. The print quality isn't brilliant, but it's fine. Is it actually a licensed product, or a boot?

Malodred

Responding to a couple below, the Captain High is fairly poor sounding. Very dull and lifeless and probably just a CD pressed into some grooves. I originally had the Moi J'Connais Records version, but sold it when Captain High's was released because I wanted the original cover (and the cover on Captain High's is a good looking one). Whenever I played the Captain High I felt it was a huge step down, but didn't have the Moi J'Connais to compare. I recently re-bought the Moi J'Connais version and the difference was even more pronounced than I remembered. The Moi J'Connais version sounds WONDERFUL! Full of life, a true pleasure to listen to. Captain High's is garbage by comparison.

I'm quite confused about which version of the vinyl to get. I've heard the captain high versions aren't that great. Can anyone comment/help me out?

DrayLOVE

None of the ones pressed on vinyl after 1960 have come from the original Del-Fi master tapes. Only the Del-Fi CD in 1995 and the Collector's Choice CD of 2004 do (or did). Also: every version after 1960 has a different track lineup from the original. Not sure why the reissue of 1995 on CD did not follow Eden's original tracklist; but it seems that that reconfigure has now stuck and is the official way the album is heard. If you can afford to, I'd buy the 1960 version on vinyl, in mono. The stereo is fine as well; a bit wonky in places. But the mono is perfect.

Is the Captain High release any good? How is the sound quality?
