Edited one year agoVery low and opaque flat sound. The best things are the details on cover and transluscent vinyl. The promo and standard are the same cut. It's a myth that the promo sounds better.

Edited one year agoI’m curious (and dubious) as to why some say this 1989 US Specialty Records i.e. SRC pressing with the golden promo stamp on its cover’s rear sounds superior to even its contemporaneous US pressings. The SRC pressing without the gold promo stamping and this promo version both bear the exact same “DMM MASTERDISK” matrices. This is not like a classic case of a Columbia white label promo whose matrices clearly indicate the record was pressed earlier than was the regular run and thus benefits from the metal stampers being in their freshest state. So I’d expect both 1989 US Elektra versions to sound the same. Maaaaaaaybe the 1989 Allied plant pressing, also using the Masterdisk metalwork, might sound ever-slightly different to a dog’s ears, but generally all 3 ought to sound similar to each other. -
Confirmed this blows the US OG out of the water, have both now and can’t believe how much better this one is. -
This is a truly superb pressing of this album. I was lucky enough to pick this up several years ago and it blows me away every time I play it. So much sparkle and deep rumbling bass. Incredible. -
-
Echoing what everyone else has said- this is simply the best way to experience one of the greatest albums of all time -
I own seven different pressings from the original to the last remastered and this one is the best sounding I've heard by far. -
