Can anyone else who received there’s confirm if there colour red LP’s look like a black/red smoke colour pattern please , just wondering if mine has a colour pressing error or if there all like that ? Or if they should be solid red. Thanks 👍🏻 referencing Exile On Main St (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Remastered, Stereo, Red) COC 69100

It is just a pity you did not get the postcards with it.
(Didn't know that the review had to be more than 10 words!)- I’ve recently picked up a copy of this with a black TM sleeve (definitely darker than the grey shown in this listing), with the postcards - so it must be a reasonably early copy, but I always got the impression that those sleeves were later. Anyone else got such a copy?

I think this is supposed to be a new cut by Miles Showell. Has anyone listened to it yet?- Edited one month ago

I have a few really nice original ‘72 pressings but when I want to listen to Exile, I put on this ‘77 pressing because it just CRANKS! It sounds so good!
