The Modern Lovers – The Modern Lovers

One of my favourite albums of the seventies and this pressing is the best version of it that I've ever heard. Immaculate sound that puts you right in the room with the band and their brilliant energy.

Would it have killed them to release the extra songs? Or at least I’m Straight? Great sound but a bit bare bones. Not even an insert or lyric sheet. Is that how it was released back in the day? Quibbles aside I really like music on vinyl reissues.

Fantastic pressing. Turn up the volume and it feels like the band are right there in the room with you. "WOW!" was my exclamation at the end of each side of the record!

Really good quality re-issue. No surface noise. Lots of dynamic range. Does not sound digital at all.

This is an alright pressing, it sounds really great. I just wish "I'm Straight" was on it.

If anyone is wondering about this reissue then here you go. It's affordable brand new and most record stores can get it from their distro at ease. It sounds fantastic and much more dynamic than any digital version I've heard (as it should be). My only real gripe, and it could just be bad luck on my end, is that there appears to be some sort of gunk stuck on the last few grooves of side B. The source of this gunk is likely from whatever adhesive is used to keep the inner sleeve together. I've had this issue in the past with a few records. I don't always suggest you do this, but a little (and I mean a seriously SERIOUSLY small amount) of Goo Gone will usually clear that up. Anywho. I love you all. Cheers.
