I rather hate to admit this, since I value and really enjoy all of the wonderful vinyl reissues that have been coming out recently, and I by no means have an original pressing bias (quite the contrary in fact), but to my surprise I found a nondescript reasonably early Atlantic pressing of the CSN to be preferable to the Classic Records reissue. I haven't listened to a Nautilus reissue, so can't comment there.
Several friends and I listened together, and we had high hopes for the Classic reissue based on all the comments. But, in comparison to the Atlantic pressing, the Classic was "flat" and uninvolving, largely due to the recessed vocals. The tonal balance on a CD reissue was more true to the original's balance. A disappointment.
