    very good pressing and dynamic to my ear ! Mastering by the great Bob Ludwig is surely part of the secret.

      Yes. Whilst not particularly reaching for you, I seem to just love the sound of this pressing and it’s delivery. A beautiful rawness with a bit of air. I feel great inside every time I play this pressing of this gobsmackingly great record.

      The guitars and vocals have great edge and make the record pop. Finds some depth in moments, ‘You Are Everything’ gets immersive. God I love this record.

      Great artwork, paper feels good and presented really nicely with the spot varnish.
