Fully agree with the previous review. This is a rock solid sounding version. Have it since it has been released and it has always been a great pleasure to listen to. A must have pressing.

Memory Motel great great song and the rest are great too- This series of Japanese releases are fabulous. The HR cutting from the DSD master, flat transferred from UK original analogue master is just superb. Everything is balanced and these are probably the best versions ever made - dare I say it?

This CD Leaves Me In Awe, It Sounds Perfect But Then Again Black And Blue Is One Of The Best Sounding Rock Albums Ever Made, The Guitars Have Real Presence, The Drums Hit Hard And The Keyboards Are So Rich In Texture. The Perfect Summers Day Rock Record, Wonderful In Every Way. All The Songs Are Incredible And Joyous And The Two Ballads Are Insane In How Much Emotion Is Conveyed, Mick Really Sings His Heart Out On Those Ones. The Grooves Though, That's Where It's At And This Album Has More Than It's Fair Share Of Impeccable Groovy Rock N' Roll. If You Love Black And Blue This CD Is For You.referencing Black And Blue (LP, Album, Gatefold) COC 59106

This pressing from 2022 is a mess, try to avoid it when you are seeking for this release.
Track A4 is horrible, lots of distortion and noise that does not belong to the song.- Absolutely a top quality recording with fantastic sound quality. One of the best sounding Stones records out there.
