Reviews
-
Brilliant pressing! Loud, dynamic, and full, and pressed on , flat, quiet vinyl. An absolute must! -
Edited 2 years agoPhenomenal! Perfect pressing. Crisp highs, nice low end, and vocals are perfectly clear. No surface noise and dead flat! The second best sounding vinyl I own. Artwork is top notch. I added poly liners to the two printed inner sleeves. Thoroughly satisfied. -
Thanks Bernie! Great to see your initials once again on this one. This pressing is excellent!
-
This pressing totally rips. Everything is super crisp and clear and well defined. The Linndrum will totally smack you in the face. Amazing -
I’m not sure if this VMP pressing is exactly taken from the 2020 Bernie Grundman remaster but the one I received is super hot. I have to play it in the high teens to mid-twenties or run the risk of not upsetting the neighbors.
This is a high quality problem. This is a gorgeous sounding album. The vocals and instruments come through flat and crystal clear. This one’s a keeper. The only drawback is that it bears the original SOTT cover and not the updated one presented on the VMP website.
