    It's too bad the quality is hit and miss on these pressings because they do press some really tasteful titles, many that haven't been in print for a long time. I recently bought four titles from Newbury: King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Infest The Rats' Nest, Meat Puppets - Meat Puppets II, John Williams - The Empire Strikes Back (Symphonic Suite From The Original Motion Picture Score) and Bill Evans - Sunday At The Village Vanguard (Which is an insanely difficult album to buy in audiophile version for under $100.00, Kevin Gray and RTI were supposedly involved in this pressing so I expect decent quality) - I'll write my thoughts down here when I'm done listening to these. But I do not have the equipment that Texasbear has below. I know I need to upgrade, but my funds aren't there for that right now. I'm not playing my vinyl on a Crosley, but also nowhere near the league of Texasbear below.

      Someone should really comment on the quality of these Newbury Comics reissues. Most of the records I'm interested in seem to be pressed by Rainbo or United which arent good pressing plants imo, there seems to be some from RTI too which is better...but I dunno, quality or not? Hit or miss?
