MOODY BLUES CD'S


I am looking to purchase 2 cd's byt he Moody Blues, Question of Balance and To Our Children's Children. I went to CD Universe website and they offer both each in three versions as follows:

1. remastered $8.19
2. Import $25.00
3. Japaneese Pressing $35.00

I called customer service asking about the sound quality.
In short, is the $25.00 ro $35.00 sound any better than the $8.00. The customer service person said she had no idea, except that some customers prefer the imports.
But she couldn't advise as to quiter services, better sound
etc. Can anybody offer my any guidance as to which of the
above sound better. PErsonal experience would be prefferred. Thank you.

The first five MB albums, including the one's you are looking for, are being released as deluxe edition multi-layered SACDs in the UK and Europe on March 20. I order them on Amazon.UK for $18 - $22 (including shipping). The difference in price reflects the fact that some have 2nd disks with outtakes, BBC radio, and other live versions. If you do SACD and have a good player, my guess is these will be great (although obviously that's just a guess until someone hears them). I've been pretty impressed with the remastering on most of these deluxe editions deals, so I have high hopes for the Redbook parts of these too.
