Definitely have to echo the comments below. Unbelievable sounding press. Making it 45 rpm was an amazing choice. Miles ahead of the OG CD.
cookman70 Sep 13, 2023
Probably the best sounding album I own.

It was mixed great and you can hear all
The individual instruments loud and clear

Late review but I just want to say this pressing is the one. This one is begging to be cranked with how dynamic every instrument is on this album. Easily one of the best pressings/albums I own.

Mammoth sound. I have a hard time thinking of a better sounding pressing in my collection. If you don't own this, you should change that.

Wow! Might be the best sounding vinyl in my collection. Great album before but even more impressed now that I have it on vinyl.

Spectacular pressing. This album is my favourite FF and I have an original CD copy with the piece of tape. Comparing this pressing to the cd it’s hard to believe that it sounds better but it does. The CD sounds great but the vinyl sounds amazing. Worth purchasing the vinyl if you already own the CD.

Sounds f ing awesome! I had an old belt that made it so I couldn't play 45rpm records without a major hum. Just got the new belt and holy mole this record really is pressed superbly well. Amazing dynamics, punch and bottom end. Zero surface noise! I did vacuum clean this bad boy, but it's obvious this was pressed with love. Kick ass!

You know how "crazy old people" have a list of records to test their setups? This should be among of them. It sounds amazing.

This is how you record, produce, mix, and master an album.

This thing sounds absolutely perfect. I would change nothing about it. Already loved it on CD, but I absolutely adore it on vinyl.

The highs aren't harsh at all, nice mids that aren't muddy at all, and the low end is very present, but not overblown. You hear every instrument.

It's just such a kickass record and a pleasure to listen to. If you're on the fence, get off it and get this as soon as you can.
