Muy buena reedición con un sonido perfecto. No puedo comparar con el original.

my copy has no label on either side on record one…anyone else have this?
BlackDotX Jun 17, 2023
Did anyone else had 1/2 side record twice? 3/4 record is missing :/

Thought I'd pop on in and echo what everyone else has said. Yes, this pressing is excellent. Flat, quiet and BEEFY sound. You can tell right from the opening notes on London Calling. Once the bass kicks in, you know this pressing is gonna be great. I spent about three weeks researching the best copy in regards to sound and affordability and this is what I went with. I was able to snag one off Amazon by searching "88875112701" in their search bar. I figured it would be a gamble if it was the right pressing, but indeed it was! No "We Are Vinyl" hype sticker but every other aspect matched up. And once again, it sounds terrific. Listening at this moment via headphones and it just sounds so full, alive and warm. No inner groove distortion as well! Which tends to be an issue on my headphones setup. Go get this pressing now!

Amazing pressing! This is definitely a must have record to buy!

After trying a copy of the US reissue which was warped and filthy, I finally stumbled across this EU version in a Chicago store. Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Flat discs, dead silent, fantastic sound. I'm glad I sent the US one back.

If you don't have this album, your vinyl collection is not only not complete, it has not yet even started. From the opening notes of London Calling, you know immediately this is going to be an excellent pressing. Wonderful instrument separation and full, booming soundstage. This record was mastered right. Not many bands can mix punk, reggae, pop, and rock with the skill of the Clash, and there is a reason this album is a classic. Treat yourself to one of the better pressings out there, because if London (is) Calling, you better damn well answer!

I'm embarrassed to it this is my first vinyl copy of this iconic album. Great, quiet sounding pressing.

Great album that sounds incredible on this excellent pressing. Highly recommended.

To echo everyone else, the sound quality on this really is fantastic. I don't expect much from modern reissues but this has to be among the best.
