It sounds like I have to by the import version now!

I went so far as to put the German version in my Amazon shopping court. There it will remain till the next impulse strikes me, which may not be long.

I'm noticing some issues with the 30th anniversary version of Odessey and Oracle, but I suspect it's due to the original recording. In its noisier memoents, by which I mean parts of songs with lots of guitar, keyboards, vocals, bass, etc. at the same time, I hear a tiny bit of distortion. On the other hand, so the detail in the quite good. For example, in Changes, you can easily hear Colin opening his mouth when he starts singing. I would love to see this get the SACD treatment. Something to hope for.
