Reviews

Really nice, dynamic, vibrant, clear, punchy pressing. Great listen. Highly recommend. -
Every single copy of the pressing with the Variation 2 matrix that I have ever seen has a major flaw that causes the volume to dip on a spot on the first side, mainly during "These Days." It could just be a regional thing and all the copies that were pressed by the time that stamper was bad were went to Atlanta, but I have seen a LOT of pressings with that exact flaw in the area.
