    Holy smokes this pressing is amazing. It sounds like the band is playing in my room, whenever I put this record on. There’s no pops or cracks, the packaging is really nice, and I managed to get this bad boy for 35 dollars. I highly recommend picking this pres!

      If you want a wonderful entry point to some early VH, these are the go to pressings. The Bellman cuts are fantastic, especially for the price. I am sure the Mofi pressings are impressive and I am usually the guy who would pull the trigger on them, but nope. I am sticking with these.

      Vinyl Quality - 4.125 stars
      Sound Quality - 3.875 stars
      Packaging(I don’t really care) - 3.25 stars
      Value - 5 stars
      Overall - 4.0625 stars

        SMOKIN'!!! This record is great. No nasty surface noise, clicks and pops. Great sound. I really can't see it getting any better than this. Right in your face, start to finish. I would highly recommend this album, but make sure you get the one, as indicated on the release page, with the blue hype sticker.

          Beware. I just got a new press of this that looks like the same pressing from the outside but no hype sticker. Runouts do not have Chris Bellman's initials. Here are the runouts. Haven't heard it yet but if you want the Bellman cut don't buy a new copy without the hype sticker.

            Better than my OG CD. Quiet vinyl and great mastering. Very happy with this reasonably priced pressing. (Mine’s the Bellman cut with the hype sticker)

              I've got both 80's press from and also the japanese one as well. This album is just a pure genius in the history of hard rock/ Heavy metal, so I really wanted to grab one to enjoy a 2020 press.
              It's clear , powerful and quite good sound .
              But there's something missing I mean; a bit lifeless in my opinion...nothing to compare with old 80's press; where there was a kind of Madness in riffs of Eddie V.H and in the crazy voice of David lee Roth...
