I’ve got the same issue that another person mentioned on here- some weird audio distortion on Lonely Woman. Maybe non-fill. Ordered a second copy from Acoustic Sounds and it had the exact same issue. Frustrating. Rest of the record sounds fantastic. Guess I’m going to keep it.

My copy has weird high-pitched electronic buzzing sounds at various places throughout.

My copy has weird electronic buzzing/chirping noises interspersed throughout the record. Definitely it is the record and not my equipment.

wow i listened to this album many times from various CD versions and Hi-Res sources. this edition of Speakers Corner is on a whole different level. the sound is fresh, lively and fully bodied. full of life. Kevin Gray did a great job and the pressing is equally professional; there is no trace of surface noise and the record is sparkling clean without needing cleaning. only a small click heard once during the whole listening. especially in the 3rd track (peace) it is extremely striking to witness Charlie Haden's Herculean bass playing. already in the opening, with the track lonely woman; you realize how strong the mastering has a background. the tone of Don Cherry's cornet is great. great pressing has been made for great music. the only aspect i can see as a flaw is the cover. these thin, lifeless cardboard covers should be abandoned and the heavy weight thick cardboard covers of the old american and japanese editions should be presented as a standard. I can somewhat understand and accept that the printing plates used in the preparation of the original covers are no longer available and that the new covers are printed using material obtained by scanning the old covers, so they cannot recapture the sharpness of the original prints, but I cannot be convinced that these lifeless, weak cardboards are worthy of these high-quality masters and prints made with today's possibilities. If we are still buying records in an age where listening to music via streaming services is all around us, I think that this experience as a whole should be much more satisfying in of printed material as well as good music. I cannot give five stars because of the cover. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, I would like to pay tribute to the great musicians who presented us with this beautiful music and the great visionaries Ertegün Brothers, founders of Atlantic Records, who provided them with the fertile environment for the revolutions they brought about.

It’s well pressed, sounds nice but I do find the highs tipped up

Essential Ornette, as all of them, right? But there's "Lonely woman" on top of it. Mastering/pressing is fine, expressing the intensity of the music

another dodgy scorpio pressing with early 70s Atlantic labels. the vinyl is not of very high quality, to say the least.

I think I have this... the barcodes on the back don't match. Still in shrink with a price barcode (actually FOUR different stickers on the back, all with different barcodes and numbers, plus what looks like the Rhino Scorpio sticker) but I can see what looks like the Rhino Scorpio sticker underneath that. Matrix matches with a little strange squiggle I don't recognize in the dead wax. Definitely heavy 180 vinyl, sounds perfectly fine.

I’m curious as to who entered the comments on this release. I weighed my copy and it was over 190 grams. Also, the labels are consistent with a late 1960s reissue, not the original labels in 1959 when this record was first released. At any rate, this record is nothing less than amazing and is a great place to start your journey into free jazz and the artistry of Ornette Coleman. All of the players are given adequate opportunity to shine on this album. The interplay between the cornet and sax is beautiful and Haden and Higgins do very well to and accompany them. This is an essential jazz record for your collection. This is a well done reissue that is highly recommended.

My copy has the right channel distortion as well. Cheap copy for a reason.
