    Good pressing! Considering how delicate and quite this album is, even a small amount of surface noise would have been very noticeable. But it isn't: it's very close to perfection: only the normal hiss, no crackle and no pops.

      This is not remastered, just an FYI. Same matrix as the previous reissue. So quiet on the first tracks of each side. Christ knows why they didnae git thon catboy Frank fae Abbey Road tae work his magic oan this, like he did oan If You're Feeling Sinister... Bit o' a cash-in, likesay.

        I don't have another copy of this album to compare with however I am really happy with this pressing. Every instrument sounds warm and clear and the colour looks great.
        Also according rough trade there are only 1000 copies? Source - https://www.roughtrade.com/gb/belle-and-sebastian/the-boy-with-the-arab-strap-rsd-2021-edition
