My 1980 copy from Holland (played couple of hundred times in more than 40 years) sounds even better than this one (new copy).
Lots of ticks, pops and surface noise (after wet cleaning).
The half speed mastered black vinyl version sounds a lot cleaner than the silver one as well.
Probably in the US it is a bargain this version, but buying walmart versions over here in Europe isn't. -
My favorite album since 1980 another copy added to Queen collection ( still sealed )
Awesome Release ( Reprinted) -

Apparently I’m one of the lucky ones? My copy is dead quiet - great mastering and a great deal at for the $15.I paid.
-
After cleaning with Degritter, sounds terrible!
I'm now on my third copy, and have one with minimal surface noise. -
Don’t know what to tell you. I thought my copy sounded pretty solid. I didn’t notice any surface noise. I ended up spinning it three consecutive times before switching to something else. Loved it all around.
-
Lots of surface noise on my copy, the mastering itself is great. Gonna try getting a second copy and seeing if it's just this copy. Will update.
**update** 11-1-2022
Second copy same thing lots of surface noise throughout, and can be heard during tracks especially "Another One Bites the Dust". Wondering if it's the pressing or just bad luck on my end. If anyone else has better luck please reply. Thanks
