      A great album but a poor quality pressing. Cat Power at her best.

        Awful album cover.

        Matador made a mistake replacing the original cover.

          pretty ok pressing i got. it seems the bass is way too loud on these, turning them down on my eq makes this sound pretty good! minus the quiet crackling that i cannot get out of it. anyway, if you find cheap you might as well go for it

            Agree with previous comment this is a dreadful pressing, I can't listen to it again, back to the CD for me

              This was Cat Power's masterpiece. It is also a very very poor quality pressing. Loaded with noise on every track, it's a real disappointment. Perhaps one day it will get the pressing it deserves.
