Holy crap this edition is just full of color and songs like boyz, bird flu, 20 Dollar really shine. It’s literally like being in a club, the bass punches so hard and there is no surface noise or pops

Great sounding pressing. Picked this up in Amazon for under 30

no info that it is 45 RPM? because it is

Boyz is just one of the bounciest gotta-dance-when-it-comes-on songs of the past few decades. Impressed with this pressings. Sounds great. Wonderful low-end throughout. Colored vinyl makes sense here (reflecting the cover design). Only beef is a seemingly common habit of VMP of releasing 2xLP versions without putting the effort into making a proper gatefold jacket. That said, the jacket it comes with looks stunning.

My copy sounds absolutely fine and i also have the VMP so perhaps the reviews on this pressing are a little unfair. New vinyl can be a bit hit and miss due to poor quality control and shi**y paper sleeves. Back in the eighties and before, most inner sleeves although made of paper were smooth inside or poly lined so didn’t leave residue or scratch the record

I see y'all with those Hudson Hifi rice paper sleeves in the photos, good looks

Where are all these new sealed copies turning up from in the USA? Very fishy.

Only issue with my copy is "Hussel" is a little crunchy in the first half of the song. Not worth getting upset over, may be able to fix with a thorough cleaning. Other than that, clean throughout. My discs have a little warp but that's par for the course these days so again, not a big deal. The packaging is beautiful.

Stunning packaging, from the sleeve to the neon green and purple vinyls. The cherry on the cake would have been having "Big Branch" on vinyl edition.
