    I have two pressings of this album, and this one: https://www.discogs.com/release/987849-Paul-McCartney-Tug-Of-War smokes this new blue pressing.

      Picked up a used copy last week and very impressed with the sound. Surprisingly for an Optimal pressing, the disc is perfectly flat too. Very happy with this pressing.

        I really need to read the fine print on this but believe it's the 2015 remixed, and I can confirm the download card gives you 2015 remixed mp3s as is evident in meta tags (title says remixed and year says 2015).
