Edited 9 months agoAgree with the previous comments: This is a great sounding pressing. Richness and warmth, analogue feel to it (no idea what the source is though). -
Dead flat.
Dead quiet.
Wish I didnt have to say the same about Syd.
(Poor humour I know)
A wonderful pressing.
If you have the first two this is all you need to rebuild the scarce and overpriced boxed set.
-
Quiet, flat, clean, white polythene inner, gatefold, great sound, Syd and a guitar. Perfect pressing!
