- The "Pasadena Remix" of Independent Women Part I is just the original version, right? I can't hear a difference and I can't find any other releases of that track.
referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album) 494394 1
why isn’t the pressing i own listed - it’s got the bonus track “get on the bus”referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album) C2 69870
Love this album, it takes me back to my bug a boo days.referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Clear W/Black Splatter) 19075983481
The vocals are great on this album. It’s pretty nice and clear, and the instrumentals and bass come through pretty well. I love the packaging, specifically the sleeves with their pictures and autographs. I also love the black splatters on the vinyl too.referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Clear W/Black Splatter) 19075983481
Sound is solid, just wish an album as successful as this one got a better treatment, packaging-wise. I'm never all that excited for a 2-LP release without a gatefold. It's not a huge deal, but I could definitely see this getting a more "collectors edition" treatment in the future. Also, the design on these records is fantastic! So often, swirled/color burst (etc etc) vinyl can be hit or miss, but this looks so freakin good!referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Clear W/Black Splatter) 19075983481
awesome print and sound quality, great pleasure to listen, recommended!referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Clear W/Black Splatter) 19075983481
I have to agree with LeonardoAraujo, the albums themselves sound great but the inner sleeves are very thin and one of mine came torn too. Not a deal breaker for me, but something for everyone to consider.referencing The Writing's On The Wall (2×LP, Album, Limited Edition, Reissue, Clear W/Black Splatter) 19075983481
Very good sound quality! The inner sleeves are super fragile and came ripped. My copy also came with a damaged on the side of the cover, but i'm really tired of sending e-mails to Urban Outfitters asking from replacementing copies, so i keep this one.
