Beautifully recorded, beautifully mastered. Roxy Music knocked it out of the park with Avalon.
referencing Avalon (LP, Album) EGHP 50
Just have to agree with everyone else, fabulously produced and pressed and still a total bargain, buy one you won't regret it.
referencing Avalon (LP, Album, Stereo) 28MM 0172
Look no further than the excellence this record will bring.
Perfect pressing. Music sounds great, no surface noise or pops of any kind. Absolutely love this album and I don't imagine it sounding any better than this copy

I didn’t believe a great album could sound any better, found this by accident from Disc Union Shinjuku from a recent trip to Japan, 3 months ago I bought a Denon CD player with SACD capabilities and this Roxy Music CD was on my wish list, I was blown away… this really sounds awesome and the extra track Always Unknowing as a bonus track,
referencing Avalon (LP, Album, Stereo) 28MM 0172
One of if not the best sounding record in my collection. This pressing is such a sleeper!
referencing Avalon (LP, Album, Reissue) EGLP 50
Great pressing that really brings out everything in this amazing production!

My copy of this pressing matches the Matrix/Runout codes of this entry. However, it didn't have the printed inner sleeve. It was a plain white paper sleeve with the center hole for the labels. I mention this to help others who may find another copy but may be unsure if it's this pressing. I bought this sealed in shrink.
Sound is fantastic. Very clear and defined. My other copy of this album is the 2022 reissue (https://www.discogs.com/release/23749295-Roxy-Music-Avalon) which also sounds fabulous.

Find a mint or near mint copy of this pressing and you can’t go wrong. It sounds outstanding.- Edited 7 months ago
referencing Avalon (LP, Album) EGHP 50
Just add one quick comment to many glowing reviews here: only the first track (More Than This) is thin and bass shy, the rest tracks are very well balanced with load of details. A truly audiophile level pressing without audiophile label pricing!
