there's nothing in the scans that suggest that the disc is encoded for any region. is this a region a or region free disc?

My US pressing sounds ok, a little surface noise in the quieter moments, but not distracting at all. Overall happy to have this unique masterpiece on wax.

great music, but there seems to be a problem with the pressing. I have unwanted noise reocurring on different tracks. It's a new copy and doesn't have any visible damage. Doesn't sound like a scratch, but some noise I havn't heard in any vinyl before. And reading the other comments I seem not to be the only one.

This record reminds me of being stuck on a slow rail replacement bus, on a rainy night in the dead of winter after a horrible day working in Liverpool. While that might give the impression that I don't like this record, I actually find these thoughts very comforting. And listening to this LP puts me in the mind of being glad to be heading home after a hard day.

absolutely stunning album. i listened to it in its entirety while walking thru a tbilisi fortress and it was...a life changing experience. mr. sakamoto said that he intended to make an album that sounds like the soundtrack to a tarkovsky movie that does not exist....i think he more than achieved that with this album.

I was looking at the other comments about the noise, and while my vinyl plays the 2 LPs entirely fine, the surface noise is a bit loud during the quiet bits. I would recommend getting the Japanese version if you can. As for the music itself, it's amazing and unlike anything I've heard before.
