Reviews
Once again the European reissue for this is infinitely better than the US one. No noise issues on this version compared to the US, which had crackles all over, especially during Scandalous. This version is completely quiet throughout with great bass too.
Next to the original, this has a bass boost. But the original has better sound quality—detail, balance and soundstage—present. The photo-quality/packaging of the original beats this reissue as well. Although I wouldn’t recommend the sound quality of this release over the original, I do admire it for its flat, quiet vinyl-pressing, the BATMAN label design, and for the anti-static sleeve included.
Compared it to my DMM American OG. There's definitely more bass on this reissue, and to me it's a sole plus. Otherwise the reissue sounds more congested and one-dimensional, with Prince's vocals buried in the mix and everything sounding just flat and pretty dead. Prince Estate should change the sound engineer ASAP, all of the recent reissues suffer from the same issues.- Very good reissue. No pops, cracks, etc.. nice channel separation and thight bass. Mine came with a polylined inner sleeve (Europe)
My copy sounds great, though it does have several minor dimples. They seem to be visual defects only, as I did not hear a single pop or thump. Might be masked by the music but very low if any.
Nice new label!!! Glad it is not the blank Warner Records one we have seen lately on some Sony reissues.
Edited one year agoI've had two copies of this one, where the needle jumps a bit at the start of each side - nothing major. Apart from that, the record is very good indeed, I cannot fault the sound one bit.- Surprisingly terrific reissue, with excellent soundstage and channel separation, and the bass is just right. Such a treat to FINALLY have this wonderful album sounding so vibrant on vinyl. Bravo!
- Outstanding pressing. I’m surprised about it. Clean, no pops or clicks.
I never had the original Lp so this new release fits the bill. Flat and very quiet pressing. My vinyl was in a thick paper inner sleeve with pix, liner notes and LOTS of static. After carefully removing the Lp, I gave it a cleaning and transferred it to a MoFi inner sleeve. Soundstage is very good and I’m happy with this addition to the collection. In closing, make sure you clean the vinyl before playing
