    Here is the update since July 2024. I wrote a poor review to this pressing and two other members replied that their copies are great and I believe them. In fact, that was my anticipation when I purchased mine. Long story shorts, I now have a US pressing from the same year and the difference in quality is just obvious and US pressing is way better. Maybe I did get a poor copy but aside from the surface noise (which is way less in US copy), the US pressing just sounds better. I know that "more dynamic, better sound stage" etc. are subjective words but that's what I would use comparing both version. My UK pressing sounds flat and boring as compared to the US one. Maybe I got some sort of counterfeit copy of this album, however everything checks up on the record and the sleeve.

      This original UK pressing has pretty bad surface noise across all four sides. The records have been cleaned twice and don't show any wear outside but nothing helps. Very disappointing.
