Reviews

Lost_Trax Jul 18, 2021
I’ve had a couple copies of this from Amazon and have to disagree that it’s a quiet pressing. The music is well mastered and sounds great but the quality control is poor with small scratches causing repetitive clicks on several tracks on both copies.

Great pressing, dead quiet (no clicks, distortion, etc.), super dynamic, highly recommended.
