What Fletcher said. Also, most of those recordings were done live and in a great sounding room.

This goes back to the answer that the guys that really understand the recording process will tell you to most of your questions about which thing is better than the other. Get a great song and great musicians and nothing else matters. Now, assume you have that. The room is the next most important thing.
If you could go back in a time machine with your fostex and sit in the same room with the VU, I'm sure it would sound fairly decent as well on your gear.
