Nice press, everything sounds right and the vinyl is clean, flat and dead silent. The music is a loose concept album based on the state of America in 72, the lyrics and music are sometimes dark and inspirational but always soulful n funky… great album and pressing, definitely a buy!
-
AMERICA EATS ITS YOUNG is an adventurous, eclectic double LP highlighted by "If You Don't Like The Effects, Don't Produce The Cause", "Loose Booty", "I Call My Baby Pussycat" and "Wake Up". This pressing sounds really nice, with plenty of bass, pounding percussion, crunchy guitars, crisp, clear vocals and a vivid, full-bodied soundstage. My copy was purchased new and plays beautifully, with no surface noise noted. -
Would anyone be able to comment on whether this version is a gatefold? Also, how does the pressing sound? Thanks.
