My record was very noisy at first most likely due to the stock paper sleeve that the record came in. Once I cleaned thoroughly with my Squeaky Clean RCM and put it into a Sleeve City Diskeeper, it was like night-and-day. Noticeably less pops and crackle. If you get a particular noisy copy from VMP, try a good cleaning and ditch the paper sleeve and replace it with a quality inner from MoFi or Sleeve City.

I can only guess that this was a bootleg version put up on Bandcamp by some nefarious individual. Since it's the only 96khz I've seen, I would guess that it was probably upsampled, most likely from a lossy format. What a stupid thing to do.

'happy birthday,johnny' is a tear inducing piece of magic.devastatingly moving.
But yes,the pressing could be way better.
It saddens me that the rebirth of vinyl has resulted in great albums like this being forsaken.

Near-silent background and a beautifully detailed, clear pressing with lots of body and bass. It's strange how varied people's experiences seem to be!

Mine is somewhere in the middle of the two extremes of the reviews. The SQ is satisfactory after the record was cleaned on my Okki Nokki, although it still carries a few ticks and pops. To my ear the record is not as dynamic as it could be but is still very listenable.
As for the album itself? It’s a modern classic!

How is this a "Misprint"? I tried comparing this to the other version but can't find the difference.

Disappointing sound quality on the vinyl. Muffled highs and weak lows. It was bad enough I thought there might be something wrong with my setup, but after checking to make sure the needle was clean and playing a few other records - nope, it was only this record. Digital version is great.

This is an absolutely dreadful master/pressing, with the high end rolled off. For a record that is aping '80s production, it should sparkle and shine, but it's muddy and sounds like it was mastered for an AM radio. One of the most disappointing releases of the year!!! Especially as the songs on the digital download are just amazing sounding. This should not be a modern
problem, folks.

My copy plays very well. No surface noise, perfectly flat, spindle hole fits as it should. No issues whatsoever

October 19, 2018Regarding the cut/recording I think it sounds excellent. Its not as bright as the digital (as others have noted) but it has lots of resolution. Plenty of sonic depth and Annie’s voice is clearly positioned on the soundstage for a great listen. As usual, I understand more of the lyrics and am more mesmerized by the music in this format. What more do you want?
