      Sounds fantastic all around. Such an amazing album. The textured sleeve for this also really brings out the artwork, which of course is legendary and iconic. 10/10 definitely recommend picking this up.

        One of the greatest albums ever, and yet, not their best…. Contentious I know 😉

          Listening to this now. It sounds really really great. If I did not have the 1981 German pressing I would be very happy. Alas the other pressing has much better sound. Possible tape degradation? But...finding a clean copy of that version is almost impossible..LOL. And I am not selling mine. So ...this is a great substitute. Well done Rhino.

            A nice package and a clean modern remastered sound, but on closer inspection what's up with the pixelated record labels? How can you botch that?

            Have a look at the scans here on discogs, this versions graphic appears to be the result of some heavy handed use of ye old magic wand tool and a low-res export. Text typesetting has been re-created, is inaccurate.

              this one beats the 2019 white cover red vinyl, i just compared the 2. This one sounded more vibrant

                Love this pressing I'm sure a Porky original sounds better but for a repress in this day and age this is great option if you need a copy

                  I find the brightness of the pressing a bit distracting for some
                  Reason! Still amazing but... you know, something about that original sound

                    Great press. I have nothing to compare but class press.

                      Got to agree about this being a quality pressing. Very pleased.
