I concur that the sound quality is great. Punchy lows and clear highs. Definitely worth the $20 + $5 shipping price if you can’t afford a first press. No off center issues with the spindle hole on my copy. Plays clean. As someone else mentioned, the artwork is not as sharp or defined which is typical for a reissue.

I've never had any problems with the vinyl reissues put out by Real Gone. They are awesome in both selection and quality. No frills...just simple minimalist packaging coupled with a fantastic sound and vinyl mastering, at a reasonable price to boot. This one is bassy in a well-balanced way, the swirling guitars and horns feel alive and Poly's voice has never sounded better.

Overall great presentation, clear vinyl looks sharp, printed inner sleeve is thick and sturdy, and doesn't scuff the record when it's removed. Artwork replication is somewhat lacking, however, as it seems to have been scanned from an original and therefore isn't super sharp. Sound quality is great- lively and energetic, with a present soundstage that allows room to breathe, and is surprisingly rich and punchy for having six tracks per side! Some people have complained about distortion from their pressings being off center, mine is off a slight bit, but not enough to affect play (at least not to my ears). The only slight I have on this issue is that there's a bit of noise leading into the first track on each side, and out of the last track on each side. Overall I'm quite happy to finally have this iconic first-wave punk album physically, and at the perfect time as it just got removed from being available to stream on Apple Music.

no warp but lots of cruft. looks like trimmings from the edge all over. needed a careful wipe with a microcloth before playing.

just got one from amazon and it sounds good, plays through perfectly, decent volume/dynamics, and has barely any surface noise. Sax definitely sounds alive!
