      Awful pressing. I’ve played this only few times and major cracking noises already on it. And now I’m reading other versions have inlays and this one doesn’t???! Skip this one.

          Sounds great for a budget reissue. No problems with my copy.

            It is very strange, 4453 people have this reissue and the rating is 4.54, now how can this mean that generally this pressing is bad in any way?
            The rating does not refer only to the music i guess.

              The albums fantastic, but this pressing is... not great. Hissy, noisy, pops, a skip or two. Really unfortunate.

                The negative reviews on this are way too harsh. This sounds great and I have yet to hear any skips/pops/odd noise.

                  i gotta say, the price was right, so i was prepared to bite the bullet on some surface noise. i am happy to say it sounds great, no extra pops or clicks.

                    There may be some badly handled copies right out of the pressing plant, but mine is faultless, has a dynamic sound, no compression that screams into your ears, just clear and with good bass and depth, better than the new remasters, and compared with the original it just has a bit more oomph, yet of course it cannot better it overall

                      you have to just drop the needle on this re issue copy and let it play out its grimey features. no skips no warps, little off center but plays straight, pops and sizzles....yes... +has a 160 gram feel to it
