    Great sound, no surface noise and nice vinyl color. Strangely there's hardly any lead in grooves on my copy. There's a sliver of space to drop the stylus on before the music kicks in. Looks like too much got trimmed off.

      Punchy, clear analog sound and a gorgeous color to boot. Another perfect Numero reissue.
