Reviews
sounds nice to me. had a first press once but not anymore. it’s an adequate replacement.- Way too much sibilance and distortion.
Bad remaster, bad pressing. Too much compression. 
Overall okay sound, however, sibilance is very noticable... My copy also came slightly warped..
Edited 2 years agoMuch too much... sibilance. This pressing also sounds very compressed, has too much mids and not enough bass. Not a very good remaster. It's that bad. It's this pressing that's going to hell!- I have a copy that seems to me of this 2009 version, but the matrix present in my vinyl does not correspond precisely to any of those reported here on discogs, my matrix is almost the same as the variant matrix 1 but on the side A it has an engraving that it looks like a 2 or a 5 upside down and then close to a =, could someone expert give me confirmation that it is still this version of 2009? if not, can you tell me what version it is? because everything corresponds to me except that little detail in the matrix
- I bought an album from 79' and it sounds like modern days. Worst remaster I have ever heard on a vinyl. They cut out the soul of this release and present you an empty sound, maximum compressed. I will try to sell this garbage.
This album wich made them famous still stands today as one their greatest and is definitely worth buying if youre a fan
Pressage merdique, le son est immonde, Columbia se moque du monde en sortant un aussi bel album dans cette version cheap.
Dès que l'on a le disque en main, on se doute que ça ne va pas être la fête, avec les finitions "premier prix" du vinyle.
Fuyez cette édition...
Really nice soundstage, dead quiet pretty good pressing to me apart from the high distortion in the high sections, is it just this pressing that has this bad distortion?- Quiet, flat, and centered.
Nice soundstage.
Not AAA, but retains a nice amount of top end clarity and bass punch missing in many recent rock reissues of the past ten years.
