    I think many people don’t realise the compression, sibilance and low fidelity are all deliberate.

    Extremely typical of RZA’s production…

      One of the best hiphop albums from one of the best ever hop hop groups and lyricists.. This album was a big change in sound. I really had to get use to the new sound but it's a true classic

        I stepped off after '36 Chambers' having heard a couple of tracks from this (+ that 'Gravel Pit' Flintstones SHIT) & thought 'nah'.

        But if I was tempted to revisit, I'd think 'nah' again based on every review on this master page...

        One LP I doubt I'll ever get involved with.

          Agree on the sibilance. This needs to be remastered for a proper release, one of the greatest records ever made C'MON!

            Were any vinyl pressings of Wu Tangs music ever good, I see nothing but bad reviews.

            What is a decent pressing?

              My copy lacks the fourth album but doubles up album 3.
              Fresh out of the package, I get records 1, 2, 3 and then 3 again.
              Very confusing.

                I got the original US release two times and can confirm that the vocal issue is on them, too. Was just here to read if it's just me hearing it. Can't hear it with headphones.
