    I always thought this was a nice album but wasn’t in love with it the same way many are, I wanted a copy but wanted to find a copy in person because it wasn’t something I was desperate to own, however now hearing it on vinyl has really made me get why this album is as beloved as it is.

    As for the pressing itself, I have no other copies to compare it to, and I have heard of others experiencing issues with the record itself, but my personal copy sounds very nice and plays accurately. The sleeve art to my knowledge looks accurate to the original and although it is thick and a nice material, it’s not quite as thick or sturdy as Guerrsen sleeves

    Overall based on my experience, this is a nice reissue.

      Actually a pretty good copy. I haven’t heard any other pressings but even so for someone who loves this album and just wanted a pressing, I am definitely satisfied.

      Interesting to note that despite being a mostly stereo pressing the track “This Will Be Our Year” (which is one of my favorite songs of all time) uses the superior mono version with horns.

        Can't speak for the sound quality (because I couldn't play it), but the physical quality of this pressing (at least the copy I bought) is shit. Spindle hole not cut properly (too small; off-center), and a wicked warp that renders it unplayable. I would recommend finding another pressing.

        Follow-up: I got a replacement and it's much better. The sound quality is on par with most reissues I have, which is to say nothing exceptional, but pretty good. I'm happy with it, and I suspect most people would be. The first LP I got must have come from a bad batch.
