    I hear a lot of distortion on some of the higher and louder vocals. Anyone else hear anything like this? I had never heard the album before so I can’t tell if it’s the recording or my copy. Could need to swap my cart but I don’t hear it on other records.

      This reissue sounds great, and it really opened my eyes as to how good of a producer Ray Manzarek of Doors-fame was for the band X. Everything is dry but clear, Exene's voice couldn't have been recorded any better, and he doesn't try to "fix" anything. This is X at their best, in my opinion...Be warned, the lyric insert does not come with this reissue, and lyrics are kinda important with X...
