Weldon Irvine – Liberated Brother

Excellent but why the cheapo sleeves? Would have loved them even more with a nice tip-on cardboard jacket.

Anyone had a chance to compare with Pure Pleasure reissue?

Did anyone had a chance to compare with P-Vine reissue?

Can anyone comment on the sound quality and other qualities of this release?! Would love to buy an OG but man that ain't happening. This seems like a great option.

Can't find anything bad to say about it..sounds clear, no cracks or pops..no warp..no distortion.. cover is laminated and laser sharp texts etc.. proper under 30€ reissue.

This album is in my top 10 list of desert island records. Sound quality is also very very high. Highly recommended

Really nice album that sounds great on this flat, very quiet pressing, which is typical in my experience with Pure Pleasure.

PP’s hype stickers are a little misleading, but they haven’t been bitten like Mofi has for its misdeeds in this realm. “Analogue Limited Edition” is meaningless — it’s analogue bc it’s on vinyl (i.e., it’s not digital). Nothing about that means this releases is AAA, but many people online interpret it that way, and, like Mofi, I think PP knows and seeks to capitalize on this.

In other words, this is most likely a digital source, but I don’t care much about that bc this sounds great, regardless of source/lineage, and I’m quite happy with the purchase.

One of my favorite Jazz records from one of the most original composers. The pressing is quite good to me!

Visually a little dish warped and scuffed out of the plastic. Played well though, just a short minor distortion once.

Can anyone comment on sound quality of this 96 japanese issue?
