- Читал отзывы других обладателей данного винила и надеялся что мне попадется хороший экземпляр, но увы...Это действительно плохая запись прекрасного альбома, высокие задраны, сибилянты резки, средние не ясные, грязные. Такое ощущение, что данную запись даже не прослушали после создания преса, очень жаль. Не покупайте, чтобы не разочаровываться в прерасном альбоме, он хорош, но не данный винил.
- I was glad to see this was reissued in June 2023 as I missed out on the original release in 2015 and haven't seen any copies for sale anywhere since I got into vinyl again a few years ago.
I don't have the original to compare this to, but all of the original's reviews suggested it sounded really bad. This one sounded good enough that I don't regret buying it for around $40. If anything her voice on some tracks sounded somewhat distorted, which does not typically happen on my system. Overall I would recommend picking up this release if you don't want to keep searching for an original that allegedly sounded really bad in the first place.
I should also note that a gatefold would have been nice for a 2LP set. Maybe this was just a rush job to get HBHBHB back in stores. Hopefully they'll do something more formidable for a 10th anniversary release in 2025. - Great album sounds so bad. I’m really disappointed… I suggest, if you want to listen, streaming is the best solution.
- There’s pretty bad inner groove distortion on side A but the rest of this sounds alright, not really great but by no means unlistenable

Mine has 2 copies of disc 5 (Third Eye/St Jude) & no disc 4 (Long & Lost/Caught). It has the sleeve for disc 4. Would like to find someone with the exact opposite.referencing How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful (Box Set, Limited Edition, 6×7", 33 ⅓ RPM, Album) GB-UM7-15-00288
Feel like there was a missed opportunity with making these 45 RPM. That would've been the icing on the cake- I sadly need to agree to the other reviews. It’s badly mixed. Hissing on s‘es is massive. Way too much treble.
This record was in the need for a remaster right from the start.
Listened over Ortofon LVB 250 and Elac Concentro S 507. - I bought my version in Poland, so it has several additional stickers and a concert announcement sticker

The Note
"Label on Record 6 B-Side (Side L) the label is the "A-Side" label, it appears the wrong label was pressed with the record, the audio is correct."
is not valid for all pressings. My copy has the correct label.referencing How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful (Box Set, Limited Edition, 6×7", 33 ⅓ RPM, Album) GB-UM7-15-00288
As Far as I Could Get should be released to streaming, just saying…
