    Never saw this many copies of this pressing pop up like this b4. Beware they are probably bootlegs

      Sorry qu0ta absolute nonsense....
      In order to hear this excellent recording with all its great facets, you need the right system and very good loudspeakers.

      This LP has a very nice, very deep, clear bass, which, depending on whether it is very deep or soft, fits directly and perfectly into the songs. David Gilmour's electric guitar sometimes seems to be a bit in the background and yet it is clear and very present in the room. The excellent and perfectly tuned highs are not much too high in the EQ like on many other Japan pressings. The voices are direct and present as if on a stage in the room. The recording has perfect stereo separation. An absolutely outstanding and, from my point of view, very unusual recording and very rare to obtain in very good condition.

        The master is pretty lacking for this release. Lots of top-end and not enough bass/low-end. (To be expected for most Japanese pressings).

        Collector's item for Pink Floyd completists, only.

            The second silver coloured obi is not from Toshiba Musical but Pioneer Records.
