I don't know if this is just my records condition, but Mr Blue Sky sounds weird. I would recommend getting another copy of this if you could.

Loved this album when it first came out (I was 5) t's groove and effects really made me notice it and listen, it was also played everywhere, got a constant rotation. In my youth I started to dislike it for much the same reason, it seemed overblown and trite, effects without purpose and over-wrought. Now in later adulthood I find myself enjoying it again - is this 'guilty pleasure'?
-
The UK -1U ‘KEV ARTHUR’ pressing is it! Beats out both the US ‘SR/2’ pressings and UK ‘Allen’ pressings, to my ears.
The instruments feel more open and separated here. It sounds more natural and “right” to me. -
-
I have a copy which has the same rear cover as this one, but runouts are different, and the labels have the same layout and codes as this promo copy but in colour like other ones. Strange

Can't believe I just found this for £15 on Vinted, sounds amazing as well, best pressing I've heard, far better than my US pressing
-
I happened to find a pretty clean copy of this and it sounds great. Clear vocals, nice and balanced, open sounding.
-
This pressing sounds very pleasant to my ears. I never compared to another pressing, but in comparison to other good quality records of other artists this one here sounds amazing in all aspects.
