Default Canciones de mi padre

Does anyone know the best pressing of Linda Ronstadt "canciones de mi padre". Trying to round out some collections and I'm missing this one by Linda. I found original asylum lps and a german pressing but have not heard either one. Any help would be great. Thanks

I have an early UK pressing on Asylum, which has always sounded pretty good to me. No idea if it is the best though, so sorry not to be more helpful. Not sure how successful this album was, so may not have been pressed in any great quantity. If so, better quality?

Yep it was pulled in the US but I think I read it was the highest grossing foreign language record ever in US history sold 21/2 million copies won Linda a Grammy. With all that going for it I thought it should be in my collection. Although I like her music she is not at the top of my list but she is one of my wife's favorite. But since I have all the rest of her catalog except this one just want to get the best sounding one I can. I'll probably have to get a few and decide which I like best.

I am sure Hot Stamper has the "best pressing available" for you.

Thanks I'll check out a UK pressing. If I can't find one here my niece lives in Telford so she may have better luck there.
