    Has anyone had any problems with the vinyl 2017 pressing of this having hugely excessive surface noise?

      I'm assuming all the new copies coming up for sale cheap are for the recent repress?

        The cover artwork is a homage to Michael Garrick Quintets October Woman.

          Eagerly awaiting my copy in the mail. I have another record cut at Timmion Cuttings and the quality is excellent!

            Really happy to see that a second pressing is up on Bancamp!

                Man. Pissed that this was never repressed. I keep looking around to no avail. Hope it appears again one day... So good.

                  This might be one of the best pressed records I own to date, incredible sq and no surface noise. Very rich and "analogue" sounding. As for the music itself, one of my favourite releases of 2017. Its sad to see there's not been a repress since then, this album should never go out of print. Best enjoyed in the chilly winter nights =)

                    Any chance of a repress? Foat is an album releasing machine lately...I’d have to assume there’s enough desire for his work to have a repress be good business.

                      I know there's a connection between Euan and Gerald, but does anyone know why this album wasn't released on Jazzman? No offense to AOTN however. Great total package Fryer so don't get mad.
