I HAVE THIS LP FROM 1968 MANUFACTURED BY LITRATON LTD.HAIFA ISRAEL
YOU DONT HAVE IT ON YOUR LIST HERE
THANK YOU -
there is a nut case on ebay in canada listing this best of german lp from 1968 for 699.99 CA dollers , he should take a look at (regardless of the fact that this did indeed come out 52 years ago) in they where pressed in mass production for both the german market and also pressed to export all over europe & the world in general, this may have got half a million units pressed, nice laminated german sleeve, i dont think this sounds anything like the uk direct hits lp from the same year, due to the mass pressing of this at that time in wich was very rare back then, i think that is why many copies never sounded this good, there is a better sounding copy of this and it is the reissue from the early 1980s that is also listed here on discogs, also regarding DIRECT HITS from the uk on track records, that to originally got a massive pressing as well but i think THIS GERMAN BEST OF got a lot more.

Not sure if the German "Best of the Who" has the same mastering as the UK "Direct Hits", but it is hard to listen to. It contains the worst sort of "Enhanced Stereo"--channels are on a delay from each other, which makes everything sound double-tracked even when it wasn't. It almost sounds like a reverse echo. Weirder, tracks from "The Who Sell Out" are the stereo mixes collapsed into mono and THEN enhanced.
My hunch is that the masterings are indeed the same-- and these awful "enhanced" versions were reused on many subsequent albums.
