Great press! No complaints regarding sound. Got my copy in very good condition at Reckless Records in Chicago and aside from some wear to the printed inner sleeve (it’s a 42 year old record there’s gonna be wear) it’s very much playable. Very pleased to have another Jam album on vinyl at last!

Just popped this on the deck for the first time in 30+ years. Great music, great production. Quite bright for an old analogue recording but this is how is was meant to sound I guess.

Solid pressing! I can't compare it to anything but this is well worth the affordable price.

This is a terrific pressing! Great separation, the bass is sublime. Glad to own it.

The first hunks of my runouts match this listing, but the second hunks are "A - i - 1 1 1" on each side.

Seems to be the Scandavian release ok. I don't know who added the images, Hopefully not me.

Picture is of a Scandinavian release and not UK. Needs changing or deleting
