While I prefer my UK Harvest A3/B3 pressing, the MFSL is quite nice and a little quieter.

agreed, mine is a little quieter also, but that said my ab3 pressing required some serious repeat cleaning. It was purchased used, and it doesn't look dirty, but it's a deep dirt I've never witnessed before. Up until recently, even after some very aggressive cleaning cycles, it still constantly left crud on the stylus, to the point n which playing it became part of the cleaning process. It's only recently that I've reconsidered it clean enough to archive / rip.

I compared these two tonight. The differences in the two are seen in the labels. The reissue is a Music Matters 33rpm, and is the stereo pressingIMG_0598.jpg.IMG_0600.jpgIMG_0602.jpg

Off topic but when searching for Valiska on bandcamp a page came up with this beautiful and well crafted photograph:
