    yeah, my pressing sounds like shit. muddy with very limited soundstage. maybe it's played down.

      my copy looks pristine visually but crackles. There is almost no bass and high frequencies at all, dynamics greatly diminished. Plays muffled and bass shy at the same time. I assume something went wrong during the pressing, or the mastering, or both!

        Here we have a very good album by Genesis, but unfortunatly this German pressing sounds not so good. I think that recording and production are good but the vinyl quality is probably bad.

            I purchased this in 1980. It has a rather large red hype sticker that says ORIGINAL LP curved around the top and on the bottom ZUM SONDERPREIS. Haven't played it since the 80's so I'll have to give it a go

              Overall poor audio quality. I do not recommend. MP3 would sound better than this.

                This is the German copy I originally reviewed, sound may therefore vary: https://www.discogs.sitioby.com/Genesis-Foxtrot/release/4948587
                This issue surprised me a bit. I have the same indicators for my German SEBTP copy and bought them at the same time from a store. Given that I assumed they would be similar in quality but this sounds much more low end and even muffled in comparison. Perhaps its really supposed to be like that but purely speaking of audio technicallity I think it could sound more open on a lot of tracks. Its still good but the Selling England by the pound issue they likely made at the same time is far superior to my ears. Try the original German release instead (which is thos one), if its the same at least you have a release closer to the original. Or a UK original if you can afford it, you want a copy close to NM like mine. The pops and crackles can really ruin it otherwise, luckily the pressing is great otherwise, next to no surface noise.

                  rather bad quality vinyl. Really deaf sound and vinyl itself is really lightweight
