Anyone else think this sounds sort of harsh? Maybe I’m too used to later versions but I returned it -
Edited one year agoIs it just me, or does this pressing sound incredible? Lots of detail and space with crisp highs and balanced lows.It should also be noted that my pressing is extremely quiet. This is one of the best sounding editions of the White Album I have personally ever heard. Including the latest Giles Martin. -
My copy of this is so fucked that I suspect it may have been the very one that ol’ Manson used to brainwash hippies…but under the noise, it still sounds incredible. When I go to upgrade, I’ll be happy to stick with this pressing.
