    Today I picked up a 1986 Japanese pressing of this. Dead silent vinyl- no surface noise at all. Very pleased.

      Absolutely impossible to find a clean first pressing of this. Been through fifteen copies so far and all heavily crackly through all but the loudest sections. Anybody got a quiet copy they want to sell?!

        I love this album but this isn't a good pressing. My copy is in excellent condition with barely a mark but it's full of surface noise. Anyone else's copy really noisy?
