Still available as of June 11, 2024. $60 plus tax. Agree on quality with previous reviews.

Wasn't aware of the substantial sonic upgrade with 45 RPM IMO until listening to AP Atlantic 75 Mingus Blues and Roots. I'm sold on the format.

This is a nice sounding album by SRV. The sound is warm and crisp. This is probabley digital, but sounds good to me.

Absolutely silent, great sounding press. Despite having 1st presses of other SRV albums, this one stays in my collection. Recommend!

This is my 1st SRV vinyl & had no clue it was digital bc it sounds great. Represses of his other albums are running a little high for me.

If you’re on the fence about this one, just order it. I put off ordering this one for the longest time but recently pulled the trigger on this and Texas Flood. Goddamn are they amazing. I know these albums front to back and they’re simply not going to sound any better than this. The jackets, the press quality, the mastering, all perfect.

Still available at acousticsounds.com for $60 as of 7/23/22. That said, go get it! You won't be disappointed. I thought having the CD was good enough...I was oh so wrong.

so, from the looks of it, the only plant that pressed this vinyl release in the US was in Carrollton? a very excellent sounding press by the way!

Sounds absolutely great, quiet vinyl, nice sound stage and separation. Nothing to complain about with this pressing.
