Soul II Soul – Club Classics Vol. One

very bad pressing, a lot of surface noise, on the upside the version of Back To Life that's included is not the Acapella but the actual single version

My copy seems to be this one--Front sticker and everything on the labels match, but instead of the Acapella version of "Back to Life" that is listed on the back, it has the Single Version...I didn't know they released an LP of this with that version on it before 2013, and then never with the American (Keep on Movin') title. Do I have something otherwise undocumented?

A timeless album, that sounds just as fresh now, as in 1989. It's a pitty that an accapella version of 'Back to Life' is included, instead of the original version.

Mine skips so I can't even play it. I can't take it back because a friend got it for me. Avoid.

The background noise from the picture is dreadful, and I was all for taking it back to the shop over a week ago, however, upon reflection I accept that the noise is simply part of this version and that the actual recording and pressing are really very good, whilst the record is clean and flat and looks great. It will never be a headphone album, but I have played it out loud twice already this evening whilst reading and playing with the dog, and the noise from the picture never bothered me once.

The picture on the vinyl is very cool, looks awesome but the background noise is a real turn off, such a shame.

My cartridge is picking every bit of that background noise. Thought something was wrong with my stylus. Unlistenable.

terrible print an unbearable background noise! ​​for 40€ it's not fair!
I'm sending it back!

Awful background noise on this pressing, anyone else have the same issue ?

This LP needs another re-issue on vinyl as good copies are silly money once again. Hopefully it will be done as the limited edition 2020 release was when they re-instated the acapella version of Back to Life matching the original 1989 version.
