Man, this surely must be one of the best sounding records in my collection, and no repressing even nears the quality of this original first press (and I've owned two in the past, a regular repress and the Red limited edition) the amount of small details present in every song, the dynamics and range, everything is top notch. If you're looking for a nice sounding pressing of this album, get this one. It's cheap and it sounds flawlessly. (Plus it still smells of Patchouli after all these years)
It's a classic album. This pressing of the album is very, very thin. Reminiscent of Casablanca record pressings. The sound quality and dynamic range are lovely—virtually no surface noise for my copy. I am curious to get a US Pressing of the album. I gifted one to a friend a couple of months ago, and it was an original 1989 US pressing of the album. The vinyl was not as thin as this pressing. If anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to leave a note :-)
Hi, I’m a young Madonna fan and I would love to have this album on vinyl. Any pressing is okay, and any quality is okay as long as it’s at least decent. If anyone is willing to sell me their copy of Like A Prayer on vinyl record please send me an email at [email protected] thanks for your time!
AMAZING sound quality on this record… quiet, clean, crisp and punchy! “Avg Rating” is a head scratcher as I can’t figure out what the heck people are rating. Ohh the humanity!! : )
