Reviews
- CD rip or actual AAA like the recent oop Vinyl Me Please release?
From another planet for sure !!! Perfect quality in all instruments, voices really. This work are classic until the end of the world. Damn!- I haven't heard the original but this sounds fine. If the original recording isn't super great then this sounds great. I haven't heard any other pressing so IDK. Music is out there at times, and melodic, and spiritual, and weird. My copy arrived without defects which is saying something for this series.
My copy is perfect. Yeah, paper inners for any record that costs more than $20 are pretty chincy, but since I habitually resleeve albums in my collection, I always have some rice-paper lined inner sleeves handy. I also clean all my records before their first play-through. So far I've only picked up this and Pharoah Sanders' Black Unity, and I have no complaints. Maybe I've just been lucky, or maybe a few of the other reviews below were just unlucky? Just remember the golden rule of internet reviews - for every bad review you come across, there are probably 100 people who had a good experience who don't bother to leave any comments at all, because that's "human nature".
Carefully removed paper inner with no scuffing as it wasn't too tight a fit to gently scoop disc out. Discharged static and wet cleaned before first play and this sounds absolutely immense. Rice paper inner getting used on it so we don't end up with a paper inner scuff job.
My copy is perfectly centred and surface is dead silent. I may have been lucky, by the sounds of things, but in my experience, every Third Man pressing I've bought has been 100% in terms of quality, but a little dirtier than most. If you take care of your records, this is not an issue whatsoever.
An absolute bargain.
Recommended!
My copy sounds very good given the source. Paper inners are a disappointment, $0.25? Cover quality could be better but this is a great album that is impossible to find in clean used condition. Good introduction to more challenging jazz, title track and Rocker number 9 are mesmerizing.
Mine sound good :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Third Man Pressing continue their streak of being unable to press a centered LP or unwilling to QC. Paper inners also add to the disappointment. Avoid.
