I think the remastered vinyl is just a shitty cut of vinyl. If a new vinyl is cut over 2LP at 45RPM by someone with the right skill (such as Levi) I would expect a nice improvement from the remaster. However, the original vinyl still might be the best sound of all of the studio albums.
I think the new 10C double bests the original. The remaster was total garbage. This one is definitely better. One thing I noticed about this new double version is that Jeff's bass is more prominent in many spots. I don't think it was remastered, rather maybe just being a 45 allowed more separation to show itself. All in all, this is probably my go to copy. But I will do a proper compare at some point.

The colored variant you mean? I hope it comes back in stock.
