The first copy I bought had quite a few pops and snaps throughout the second half of Side 1. Got a second copy and it's perfect. Great to have this album made available again.

Yeah, it's a good one. The sound is layered and deep and I barely hear surface noises.

It's here and it's a great quality press. Nice shiny sleeve, poly- lined inner. Overall great package. Shipped direct from Superior Viaduct with no issues.

happy to report that this sounds amazing, I own an original but haven't heard the new SV CD version, either way you can't go wrong here.

I had the bootleg LP on Oddullabaloo but sold it when this CD was released. I'm glad I did so and got the CD instead: the record had some surface noise on both sides (even after cleaning), and the music itself sounds better on the CD too. The sine wave in track 1 is much fuller-sounding, which is a big improvement. It's good to see the original calligraphy reproduced in the poster booklet too. A CD most definitely worth buying.

Super quiet pressing, super impressed. Very clean out of the sleeve, looks like care was shown putting this together.

Am I the only one that's incredibly excited about the cd version of this?

Pretty funny that a record commonly referred to as "The Black Record" is issued on clear vinyl :)

Gotta say, pretty dang happy with this pressing. Young's music doesn't particularly lend itself to vinyl -- it's more suited to the low noise-floor and crystalline clarity of digital carriers -- but this pressing is quiet and well-centered, delivering the music without a lot of noise or wobble. While the poster is cool, I kinda wish some new notes had been commissioned, but at this point, with any recordings of Young's music being pretty scarce, I'll take what I can get.
