Re: UK vs. Dutch Pressing of the Fitzwilliam Qts's Shostakovich

I've just checked but I'm afraid that all of my pressings from this cycle are of Dutch origin. I would just say that in general pressings from the Decca New Morden plant are considered superior to those made after the takeover by (the then) PhonoGram. I have heard rumours that a number of Dutch releases from the first year or two had to be recut as they were so compressed compared to the New Morden originals. That is not to say however that overall the Dutch pressings don't sound pretty good in their own right.
