Album sounds great, except of the last song on D side "Pearls". This track is completely going wrong with pops, crackling and huge distortions. Probably bad press. Needed to return to the seller.
EDIT: I recieved new piece after returning, now the original issue is gone, but still the last song "Pearls" doesnt sound good to my ears. Kind of distorted in louder passages. Has anyone the same problem?

I think this sounds like a typical MOV record. Clean, flat but just not quite elite. MOV typically uses high quality digital transfers and I think this sounds the same. It's not quite as warm, rich, expansive as it could be, but it's still very good. I'm happy with it.
an excellent pressing. Really good quality, clean and almost no background noise. Deep bass, crisp sound and you don't need to boost the volume to listen! Sade's beautiful voice on top of that, it is a bliss. Very pleased. Sony hardly disappoints me with quality.
Absolute perfection. As others have said here, this pressing is absolutely silent, clean, rich, and dynamic. Vinyl doesn't get much better than this. I wish every pressing sounded this good!

Perfect sound quality, this is how any new vinyl should sound. Best press in my entire collection, play this on your turntable and it will sound like heaven.

This is actually an sonic pleasure to enjoy. Almost silent, warm and dinamic pressing. Nevertheless, I can confirm there's some distortion at the end of sides C and D. My only complain though, is that they used cardboard inner sleeves so there are scuffs on the vinyl.

great pressing. quiet background. smooth and musical sound. i think the mastering is better than my original Diamond Life, on which i can hear some sibilance here and there. the mastering here in the Best Of on the other hand, is warm. Highly recommended.
