    This press is quite bass heavy, may require some changes to your setup EQ to get the best out of it.

      I love this lp and don’t feel it’s full of filler at all. There isn’t a bad track to found on this! This Pittman 1st pressing sounds dynamic as well. You can really hear into this press and feel the bass with breathy vocals. Essential to say the least.

        I bought this used as VG+, but the record was so dirty, it was not possible to listen to. After cleaning it, I got most of the dust out of the way, and now I can get some decent sound.
        I love Paul Simon, and Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard is possibly my favorite song of his. Just for that song, this album is worth it. Mother and Child Reunion is also a great tune. However, I was expecting more of the whole album. Side B, especially, is full of fillers.

          I just bought the 180g remaster of this, and it sounds awful. Dull, lifeless... no cymbals. Other records sound great on my system, so I know it's not that. Plus, I know this recording like the back of my hand and know how it should sound. Can anyone suggest a good vinyl reissue of this?

          The one I got was this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GD7UNBA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
