    I have 2 new copies of this. In both copies the white, second, record is warped. Anyone else experienced the same?

      sound quality is perfect - beautiful pressing - just as i remember in my youth but minus the clicks pops and crackles hah hah John Peel RIP would have added this to his collection without a doubt

        How is the sound quality on this pressing. Seems an awful lot per side even if their songs are short.
