Sounds like a really good pressing, DEAD quiet. I doubt you’ll get these sounding any better honestly, when you can find them, Meters 45’s are usually beat to hell. Great package and incredible music!

Can someone please tell us how they are certain Kevin Gray did the laquers on this? I think that would be info that Real Gone would use in their advertising. I can’t find that info anywhere and he usually has his initials in the runouts, and that is not the case here. Thanks.
Excellent pressing. Glad to finally have a copy.

This 3 LP album sounds amazing on my sh!tty turntable set up. Can only imagine how great it sounds on a high end set. Can't go wrong with this compilation. Probably some of the Meters' most funkiest jams. Somewhere in-between rock n roll and soul lies the Meters. Hiiiiiyah!!

Essential release all around. Excellent mastering, packaging, and my press quality is great. This sounds really great - open soundstage and punchy as hell like these recordings should be.
