This is one of my favorite LSCs and the first I paid big bucks for. It’s a little light on the bass but the mid-range is so lucious. The Classic reissue (especially the 45rpm version) restores the bass but is EQed differently.
I second that notion. This is one my absolute favorite Living Stereo albums. The performances and sound quality are just superb, not just for the era but in general. The JVC XRCD also sounds excellent, though just lacking that extra bit of analog warmth to it.

The “Alborada del gracioso” is especially worthy.
