I thought this all sounded okay, in fact, the kick on black sea is probably one the nicest and full kicks I've heard. Overpowering and probably distorted, but in a good way. all tracks sound heavy and I like it that way.

This is by far the worst "remaster" I have ever listened to. The tracks have so much compression it even distorts while playing the vinyl. The Aqualung Version of Black Seas has just some bits at the end, the rest of the track is the same as before.

So are the Aqualung versions here simply remastered or musically different in some way?

anyone else have a lock-groove at the start of side B?

I too am thrilled to have this in my collection. These tracks sound *so* much better and 'beefier' than the originals. Just amazing. Major kudos to Alden Tyrell on the mastering. Hard to pick a favourite between Black Sea and Wavejumper, but I think Black Sea just edges it!

A Clone newsletter claims no repress.

A heavy pressing, especially for Clone standards, I hope they will keep it up.
Very nice cover too!

Record absolutely astonishing, sounding wonderful, thanks Alden!
