Canadian pressing time!
Alright, so now we have my home and native pressing of the album. This is the variant that comes with the "Coming Up (Live at Glasgow)" 7" single.
This pressing sounds really good, it has a wider soundstage compared to the German pressing, however I feel the top end is a bit too silenced, giving this album a more soft profile. This softness does work for slower numbers like "Summers Day Song" and "One of These Days", but can take away the impact from more energetic tracks like "Temporary Secrerary" and "Frozen Japanese" (I'm not saying it's original title).
The quieter top end, along with the wider soundstage do give this pressing a more open and air-y sound which is very pleasant to my ears and I do recommend it for those who prefer that kind of sound to their records.
P.S.
I personally prefer the German pressing, as I feel it's direct sound makes it a lot more exciting to listen to and despite it being more closed in, it's nowhere near as bad as the 2017 Clear vinyl pressing.
