I can concur with the review below. This sounds AWFUL. A muddy, lifeless mess. Side 2 is better than Side 1 in spots, but it's still not that good at all. Really can't recommend this at all from a sound quality perspective. -
I recently acquired a super clean NM copy of this pressing and I have to say I was disappointed in the sound quality, low volume and a bit muffled. The songs from this LP on my 2020 white vinyl Queen Greatest Hits blow away You're My Best Friend & Bohemian Rhapsody here.
