    Did both TG and Domino pressings come with an insert? Some sellers claim to sell the TG with insert but there are mixed stories. If anyone knows please reply thanks

      I acquired this LP not too long ago in a VG+ to NM condition and cleaned it up really well before playing it. Needless to say, it is absolutely littered with pops and crackles throughout both the A and B sides. Even in louder tracks such as “A Tribute To” is it still audible throughout the whole song. This album has a very dark and quiet ambiance to it, and even though it’s a bit disappointing to someone like me, maybe it adds to the aesthetic for others. Who am I to judge, right?

      If you’re a true fan of this album and you desperately wanna get your hands on a limited and obscure pressing such as this one, my only advice is to exercise some caution. Definitely ask about the sound quality before throwing down 100+ dollars for it. It’s a turn of the millennium pressing that obviously isn’t gonna be of the highest audiophile quality and only ever got pressed in such a limited number. (Here’s to hoping for a repress one of these days!)
