Difficult to get in the Netherlands. On RSD itself no luck. In the end ordered here on Discogs for a decent price.
Nice pressing with no issues! Great cover.
Happy with it!
jamieg1984 Apr 14, 2025
This was my most wanted RSD album ever, and as such queued for 4hrs to get it from local shop.

An incredible package, the story booklet is great.

However, major sound issues on track Father/Son on side B. Prominent background noise and crackles. It is dreadful. Multiple cleans in ultrasonic cleaner and still present. Really gutted.

Wait before buying here, store price is around 40€
find record store online ;-)

As someone else mentioned--there may be both US and European versions

I got a copy in the US--mine was flat (which was good given the booklet thats included and tight shrinkwrap)

Disc 1, side 1, played great; side 2 has some noise--sounds like no fill in some spots, in particular during "Father Son"

Disc 2 has been playing through nicely on both sides

Hoping the noise on side 2 of disc 1 will clear up once I spin clean this a few times (played it through the first time straight from the sleeves)

Picked this up today, the barcode and Real World cat# is completely different. Clearly, there is a US release along with this European release.

Shout out to Late Nite Records in Cleveland who still had 5 copies of this 2 hours after opening. This was the #1 record on my RSD list this year!
Jawn_Weest Apr 12, 2025
Only 3000 pressed. I waited all morning outside in the cold only for them to sell out of the 2 copies they must've had. So, to the touts I go.
