Perhaps I got unlucky, but I still prefer my original copy’s sound quality over this one. Great packaging however, and still a great record overall. Glad it can get into more hands now!
Great sound on this. If you haven’t listened to early Wall of Voodoo you should. Post Punk Ring of Fire!
This release sounds incredible! I have an OG copy, but so glad I picked this up.
This is a 1980 issue - not 1982. It pre-dates their first LP - https://www.discogs.com/master/22296-Wall-Of-Voodoo-Dark-Continent
referencing Wall Of Voodoo (12", 33 ⅓ RPM, EP) SP 70401
One unique factor about this record was that the mastering was cut massively loud. With 8-10 minutes per side at 33 r.p.m., whoever mastered this did a fantastic job of making sure all of the dB available was lovingly poured into the wax without any peril of groove jumping. You put this record on and you know you’re in the room with some serious sound. I got the Rykodisc DLX RM CD of this title some years back and there is no comparison as to which sounds preferable. The CD is polite and emaciated, but this record… this is the kind of record that you can play and believe that vinyl can easily wipe the floor with digital audio. Of course, that 8-10 minutes per side is key.
