I have the 2017 Mr. Bongo reissue, and it sounds great. But this one blows it away! What an amazing mastering job by Miles Showell at Abbey Road. The instuments seem to have more breathing room, and both the power and subtleties of Gal's voice are fully realized. -
I don't have an original to compare this too, not any other pressing. But on its own merits, this pressing is great. Wonderful instrument separation and levels. Sounds clean, and even if there may be a digital step (as it's an Abbey Road half speed master), it would be hard to tell. Oh and the songs are damn fine.

Edited one year agoOK, if you are a first-buyer, then this is a no-brainer. Another high quality release from Mr. Bongo. If you have their last pressing, let me highlight some differences: The old cover is much thicker, but the color of the print is less natural. The print of the labels on the new one is quite faded. My older pressing has some issues with three or four non-fill sounds. The sound on both is great. The older has a handful sibilance, none on the new one. The insert with the interview is nice. The poster is a cool addition, but the quality of the photo in this size is debatable. Both pressings are around 140 g. The small difference in sound is very hard to describe for me: It's a bit more balanced, a hint of fuller bass and a tiny less pronounced highs. Anybody more ideas? -
To me Relance is one of the highlights of La Costa's career ... Very sad then that the pressing of this 50th anniversary release has loud cracks (invisible on the vinyl disc) in the intro to precisely that song.
