I have compared the 180 gr. version with an original pressing. The old LP had much more air and better soundstage, although less high frequency detail (probably due to being played a LOT for 30 years on various questionable equipment). I suspect it was once a much better all around record. Still, the 180 gr sounded surprisingly good, as some do not. It was nice and crisp and very revealing. If I had only that I would be happy listening to it, but I still prefer the space and openness of the old LP>
