Sound quality is really nice on this pressing, aside from the previously mentioned line that is muffled a bit. The sleeve and record are a little lightweight but the print quality is nice and at least my disc isnt floppy. -
Edited 10 months agoI can also say that the vinyl is thin, but the sound of the record is excellent. The one audio part ("I'm paranoid... I'm very paranoid") is a bit muffled (compared to the later digital remaster, where you can understand everything), but the rest is superb. The gatefold is thick and high quality.
I'm very happy to have this copy in my collection. -
