Sadly this release is not worth having unless the copy was immediately taken out of the PVC upon purchase. The bass is muffled and has plenty of surface noise throughout.
If you are after the music on this, I recommend getting the promo copy, which... See full review |

The only way I can describe it, since I have the Nilz and the standard Source US / Astralwerks press (although not the Miles cut so remains to be seen), is that the Nilz cut sounds like you're listening to a first press vs a vinyl mastered from a...

The copy I have of this is missing D1. There are only 14 tracks on the D side.

Replacement set has an error in the same place. Likely the lacquer disc used is faulty.

My copy of "Suffer Well | L12 Bong 37" A side came with a broken groove on Suffer Well (Metope Remix). Ultrasonic & a thorough cleaning did not fix and could not see any dirt to confirm if foreign artifact. Just for all information.

Who pressed the vinyl? Can someone fill in the pressing info?

The originals were orange RCA labels...I believe that is why.

It does appear to exist.
1. Ninja Tune's website has been updated on the store to show it: https://ninjatune.net/release/amon-tobin/piranha-breaks 2. I have found the cover art for this release different art. Here is the 2 track version:... See full review |

If anyone wants to know what sources Cheppa uses, it is almost always digital. From his own interview in the Mastering Engineer's Handbook, Second Edition, page 175: "What is the master format that you usually get in? DAVID CHEPPA: I get everything,...

Album hit the billboard charts the week of March 14, 1981 (#190). https://www.billboard.com/charts/billboard-200/1981-03-14

I don't have an original to compare with, I only have my David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World 1984 NL press to compare to. Width Of A Circle on that press is muddy and undynamic by comparison to this pressing. In terms of clarity of sound, it is quite similar to my 1990...

Here is the press release around this, it is mastered from the flat master tape: https://www.udiscovermusic.com/news/vinyl-howlin-wolf-moanin-moonlight/

Consistent with the last Spiritualized release: top quality sounds, great packaging, average MRP press (quite noisy throughout, you will need an ultrasonic clean to get the crap out of these grooves). Fat Possum pays a cheaper PPU with not as much...

Loud, dynamic, sounds brilliant. Run, don't walk, to this pressing.

Is there anything definitive if this was cut from the original analog tapes? I assume it was since it's not called out...

I bought the original because GZ Media...ugh. Too hit and miss with them.
|
|
I hate the following trite expression, but I did almost fall out of my chair when I first heard this pressing. The crystal clear sound of the intro on the first cut of Side 1 is so real, I thought I had upgraded my audio equipment by a grade. Later,...

Very helpful VinylShiloh...and that is exactly what I was doing. Thanks for saving me money!

4 Mean with Bears + Plain were the bane of vinyl reissues in the 2010s. Hopefully the runt of the litter never returns.

It looks like these carnival clowns have shut down. Good riddance.
|
|
It should come in an RTI bag for it to be this edition
|
|
Recommended if you can find it - uses the same mastering as the US copy as indicated on the runouts. My copy plays flawlessly - highly recommended if you can find it.
|
|
I recently bought this and I can't replicate the issues in the first comment. It's true that the Memphis press isn't a silent/flat pressing like RTI or QRP, however my copy I played on my Rega P10 sounded terrific with a lot of life. Furthermore, my...

The worst record I've ever received. I received two copies and there are so many pressing faults, an ultrasonic cleaning did nothing. Just disgraceful to do the man's music like this.

Seems my review was deleted by the site so I will post it again. This release has way less dynamic range than the original and should be avoided.

My replacement was just received, and it does skip in the same spot as before. I asked Bleep if they're going to repress the thing, or just send another record.
|
|
|
I had one as well - just contact Bleep to get a replacement. Mine is already in the mail.

Clearly you should get a free one on the user name alone. :)

There is no official record of who 'remastered' it on the release, so I honestly think 'remastered' simply means it was cut for vinyl.
