Tragic pressing, Do not buy this shit avoid this y
Ned_Ryersen Mar 10, 2023
Avoid this pressing! I owned both these Illusions pressings and would recommend buyers pop for the original all-analogue press or the recent 24/192 remaster. This vinyl reissue is a 16/44.1 cd file on vinyl.
gnrfan8804 Aug 13, 2021
Can anyone tell me the difference between this pressing and the 2008 UK pressing?
numinous510 Jul 9, 2021
Picked this up at my local Media Markt for 22€. First record I ever bought in a store instead of a online shop or dealer, so I was a bit anxious.

It for sure is not the best record I own quality wise, but it's definitely not terrible. Not a lot of noise, just some between tracks and there was quite a bit of noise in the beginning of the B side, but nothing too bad.

Had to carve out the hole in the second disc, because it would not fit on my turntable as is.

Definitely not disappointed by the record and very happy to have it.

Just bought this from amazon.es. Sounds a little grindy on the treble side of things, very strange. I don't have any other version of this on vinyl, but my CD copy definitely sounds better. Might return it to amazon.

I just picked up this release. Sounds fine but as stated it does not have back to vinyl, parental advisory sticker or mp3 code. Has made in Czech Republic stick on rear. LPs are thick and heavy, 180? Don't know.
cockneyuk Sep 21, 2017
Im slightly confused with these as well. Certainly heavier than 140g, vinyl is very thick and heavy. No download codes or sticker, no Back To Black markings anywhere, no date, also has GEF 24420 in the runout. Very noisy pressings, sounds like the stylus is grinding in between tracks, noting wrong with setup just these two pressings.

Could it be there also exists a 180g version of this one (or only 180 instead of 140g?)? I'm pretty sure mine is heavier than 140, but it's definetely not the "Back to black" edition (i.e. no download code, parental advisory instead of "Back to black" sticker)... The same applies to Use Your Illusion II.
