    I found just the record (no sleeve) at a thrift store last night and I'm amazed at how great this pressing sounds, probably one of the best sounding records I own! Mine has some pops and clicks, but it's super well balanced with really good low end and clear mids and highs. I have no other copies of this so I have nothing to compare it to, but I'd recommend it if you can find a cheap copy. This might become one of my new reference albums!
    PS: Anyone with a spare outer sleeve (innersleeve with it if you happen to have both, only really need the jacket though), please shoot me a message, thanks!
