    Received this record sealed as a gift. Unfortunately my copy had a bit of crackle here and there even after cleaning, and I could hear some faint distortion on a solo or two. It's usually when a record is bought online though that I face issues like this, so I think some time I'll grab another copy at my local record store to compare.

      I was lucky to get a clean copy with almost no pops or clicks - but I can hear a little rumbling on every turn of the record during the early minutes of side A. I can't hear absolutely no sibilance or inner groove distortion.

      But the mastering sounds quite lifeless without an impressive soundstage or dynamics. Some sound effects show the potential in the high range but these moments are pretty rare. The bass lacks punch in the low range as well.

      The album can sound really great with tiny equalization adjustments in the bass and high range to make the sound cleaner and widen the soundstage. But this release sounds like a muffled record with too much dust on the stylus.

        Great record, nice reissue. Sounds good to my ears, good dynamics, but lacks some stage. The vinyl itself is not the best; lots of noise and a little warped. Great to shelf and play sometimes. A good addition to my vinyl collection as the og in mint state is to expensive and very hard to find.

          Fantastic record but terrible mastering - sounds flat and soulless when comparing to other versions

            I haven’t had chance to play this yet, but is anyone else’s inner sleeve INSANELY tight? It was almost impossible to get the disc out. Can’t wait to get it into an anti-static sleeve instead.

              I received this version but this is not the original 2016 release, the black cover with the 2016 sticker is missing and there is only a black plastic cover and inside the album with a white cover and the man on fire. So be aware of it when ordering.

                Love the remastered sound, just as the Animals remastered edition. It is bigger than ever! I am not disappointed.

                  Picked up a brand new, sealed copy for 18 euros. I don't really get it why some people are bashing this reissue so hard, I might be lucky with my copy, but it sounds great and it is dead quiet. James Guthrie and Bernie Grundman surely made a briliant job on this one. No doubt that the first UK pressing would sound better but those originals are pricey and I reckon it is nearly impossible to find a decent copy wich is not worn out and still sounds at least this good. If listening experience is more important for you than the collecting passion, do yourself a favour and get this reissue. In my opinion it is great.

                    A lot of pops and clicks even after multiple cleanings.
                    Sound-wise also not impressed: to me it sounds base-focused. lacking dynamics
