referencing 10 Year Anniversary Illmatic Platinum Series (2×LP, Album, Reissue, Remastered) C2 92072
This is a great pressing of an amazing album. Count your change and get it if you can. It’s a nice remaster. Sounds good
referencing Illmatic (LP, Album, Reissue) 475959 1
good sounding press. cant complain when im chilling with my green friend bangin this one
referencing Illmatic (LP, Album, Reissue) 475959 1
Vocals are a bit distorted on this pressing. Mine came quite dirty even though it was a new sealed copy- I have the same CD with the same catalogue number SICP-557 however my copy has a sample sticker on its rear inlay. My number is 157619. Of course, the dynamics are completely gone with this release. The original pressing and all of its repressings are much better!

Where is the quality control at Get On Down? 3 singles are warped /arched. Represent plays with many klicks and static, The remix 7" is a bit off-center. Then I stopped my session. Put all back in the folder and return them to the seller. In the end, it's to pricey for this result.
The Japanese are known for their superior pressings with virgin vinyl. But assuming this press has the same sibilance that every other one has had since it came out forty years ago. Please say it ain’t so

Ok i have tried to put on some weight on stylus during A5, B4, B5 and now it sounds so much better.

We gather here today for the funeral of Halftime from Illmatic on this here pressing.
Edited one month agoreferencing Illmatic (LP, Album, Limited Edition, Numbered, Reissue, Repress, Concerto Exlusive Red Vinyl) COL 475959 1
Flawless pressing! No skips, no pops or any clicks! Flat and beautiful red vinyl.
That’s a proper numbered edition, same as the reissue of Lauryn Hill, De La Soul album released some years ago for the Concerto Birthday!
