Reviews

There is a newer (2021) pressing of this double lp with no picture on the front cover.
However, be warned there's a batch of these that are faulty and some tracks skip. It's been reported. So obviously check your copy after buying. -
Absolutely great pressing and clear sound with dynamic highs & lows. I'm very happy with this release and high quality pressing!
