Harold Budd – The Pavilion Of Dreams

Bought 2 copies, one very crackly and the other fine…the label refused to exchange…

If the Exotica genre was allowed on Discogs, it would definitely apply here. Very obvious influence of Las Baxter and Martin Denny. Beautiful music.

Great album and pressing. Beats the original i had that's for sure.

this album, and also this reissue, is about as good as it gets

I have a copy I recently picked up which has the original 1979 "Obscure" labels on the disc, however the sleeve is the classic 1981 pink album cover. I have been unable to find a corresponding release, as all 80's copies with pink covers have the "EG Editions" label. On the sub-page for "Obscure", the image displays the pink cover, was this the case for select first presses?

I know that ambient music is NOT one of Analogue Production's shticks, but it would simply be amazing if they pressed older ambient titles in the UHQR series - especially this one. An absolutely fantastic and legendary ambient album that deserves a true AAA release in the near future.

I had my finger hovering over the buy button a number of times for an older pressing for big bucks but never pulled the trigger. I'm glad I didn't this one is fantastic and this album is just a magical piece of art of the highest order. The vinyl sound is fantastic, the music is brought to life with this pressing.

Yeah, this baby smokes - great pressing! Absolutely essential music, that's all I have to say!

Amazing pressing. Dead quiet and flat. Beautiful record by a master of ambient music.

I am blown away by how wonderful this record sounds! One or two errant ticks, but otherwise it’s dead silent.
