    This is a brilliant pressing. Clean. Base, drum, guitar and voice nicely balanced.

      Yep - dead quiet.Translucent? HA! This picture is misleading - or I got screwed out of 1 beautiful lp...mine's dark, yet slightly translucent
      dammit!
      gotta say: wasn't happy with the high end on this mix - the cymbals were muddy but ok, and the vocals had clarity, but the whole mix was a little dulll, maybe that was the intention originally

        Listening to a NM copy right now and wow! Beautiful, detailed, and dead quiet.
