Would this LP from Greece be the original first pressing of Ten?
Or is the consensus the U.S. pressing in 1994 is first in line or better somehow.
Ten ‎(LP, Album)Epic, EpicEPC 468884 1, 468884 1Greece1991
Or there is this one from Brazil. 
Ten ‎(LP, Album)Epic188.228/1-468884Brazil1991
If I really want a copy of the original pressing what do all of you think? 
Europe, Spain, and the UK also made pressings before the U.S. in 92-93.

Ten ‎(LP, Album)Epic AssociatedZ 47857US1994
So, when searching which album would truly be considered the original? Thank you for anyones help. I appreciate it greatly!

    I have the Greece for that reason- it’s the first. No “release date” vs Brazil advantage that I know of but shipping from EU substantially cheaper.

    No right or wrong, and it’s a collectible in my opinion- I listen to the 180 gram reissue. I think it was also issued in EU (including Basketball) and Asia in 92 (South Korea?) before US. 

    The obvious answer is buy them all. Peace of mind. :)

    This is a good question.
    Any opinions on which original sounds the best? Do the OGs (from whichever country) sound better than the most recent reissue?

    My guess is that all will sound better because the recent version sounds bad

    That is what I expected, since that's the case with the others... Ten is the only original LP I don't own. I guess I should get it.

    Original 94 US pressing sounds the best of the pressings I own.
