Reviews
- Solid pressing. No pressing defects or warps. Be sure to clean your records because this came filthy out of the sleeve. A must have record.
- Thick, heavy and flat, no defects.. great pressing...
But.....
The sssssound is very ssssibliant.
Inferior to my CD - Wanted to buy a 100 € original copy, but wanted to test this cheap one first.
Waoow ! I confirm the really amazing pressing.
People with low budget have to seriously consider this press. - Retains all the slam of the original, lots of fun to listen to. They did a great job. Silent.. It's a bargain, one of the best sounding represses I own.
- I own a 2016 europe edition with a different deadwax variant, not listed here. The pressing sound good to my ears. Such a great album anyway!
