I think this pressing sounds great! I've got nothing to compare it to but to me it sounds full and detailed, vocals are clear and the bass is warm and sits right at front with the vocals. Found a super clean copy for very cheap... highly recommended. -
Terrific sounding pressing of a stone-cold soul masterpiece, with good clarity & nice bass. -
-
Question: What is this superior pressing bs?
I mean it sounds great but it’s not noted on the record itself.. -
Anyone else have a copy of this pressing that is just 'so so'? Maybe I just got the lemon of a run.
-
Masterpiece, visionary album, carrying a message sadly still so relevant nowadays, almost 50 years after it was recorded. -
