Dusty! Low gain! Not loud at all! You have to crank up the volume to hear some music, side effects … lots of noise on B side, even after cleaning avoid.
-
Great sounding pressing. Mine was very dusty and had some gum residue on the edge which is coming off after cleaning.
Make sure to add a bit of pre gain. Master isn’t super hot which isn’t a bad thing at all! -
Copies still available at Third Man records for a decent price.

referencing Hard Groove (2×LP, Album) 065 192-1
this bass on this pressing kicks ass but can't justify the price of it. just hope the 180g version lives up to the original. -
Edited one year agoListened to whole album quite carefully today and it sounds great to me. It’s not too low, I did crank the treble a bit to make it pop a bit more, but overall I think this is a good pressing. It is a bit pricey however -
Edited one year agoMy copy was clean as a whistle and flat as a pancake. Did not even wash the record before playing. Only swiped it with a carbon brush.
It had paper with poly-lined inners and they had cut the edges of the record so flat that I was wondering if they had used mould injection technology like The Green Vinyl Records project.
As mentioned in comments before me the volume level is pretty low, but I have no problems with pops and clicks so I can turn up the volume to compensate. -
Edited one year agoI got Mine, and i have no issues with it, Sounds great. no surface noise ! And that's a great album been looking for reissue since a long time.

Edited one year agoYou've got to clean these very thoroughly, beyond the visible paper debris--there is gunk in the grooves. Once you get that out, the sound is great. -
Edited one year agoAmazing album with a crazy lineup…but third man continues with releasing poor quality pressings. So disappointing as I was hoping that they could get this one right.
Overall level is very low, so you will need to turn it up.. clicks n pops galore. Putting ‘audiophile’ on the hype sticker is a bit silly when you can’t even press the records properly.
They messed up the blue note 313 series and the verve by request. Only record I own that was worth it was the Alice Coltrane.
