referencing Accelerate (LP, Album, Reissue, 180g) CR00550
Just paid $10.00 for a preowned copy of this pressing. Sound is magnificent. Amazing how a nice vinyl version can lead to a positive reassessment of a particular album in an artists catalogue. I would call "Accelerate" underrated. -
My copy is also terrible. Quiet enough, but very harsh, with lots of sibilance on the vocals, and an overall murky, thin and altogether fatiguing and unpleasant sound.
I thought at the time of release that the CD was badly mixed. Comparing today with the LP, the latter sounds even worse. -
I really like the songs on Accelerate, but there is no version this album that sounds even halfway decent to my ears. Was hoping that the latest (2023) vinyl release would be a marked improvement but it was not at all, at least to my ears. I just feel that it was a very poorly-mixed recording. I guess that this particular 45 RPM version is as "tolerable" as it gets... -

Just bought mine, still sealed. Perfectly flat, great sound, very happy w purchase -

I wonder if some of these are just coming dirty? After wood gluing, my copy is approaching a dead silent background. This is a great pressing, in my opinion. -
Edited one year agoThe pressing lacks spaciousness - especially where the drums kick in (70% of the record mainly) -
The US version of this reissue by Craft is a really muddy master and not that enjoyable to listen to. Wondering if this EU pressing is any better, as it appears it was pressed at a different plant and cut from a different lacquer.
