    Mine sounds very good. It re me to classic 60’s records. Of course doesn’t sound like new releases of new music. It has the same mastering like Monophonics records, real music, real instruments, real music. And more than 180grs. It’s very heavy!

      Just picked a copy that has a sticker on the back saying “Made in Czech Republic”. Sounds fantastic. No issues whatsoever. Not sure if this pressing has been put into Discogs yet.

        Seems that I got very lucky as mine plays just fine. True, the wax isn’t silent, but it’s not obstructive in any way. In fact, to my ears, the record sounds like a faithful recreation of those old Atlantic soul records from the late 60s. Very lively soundstage. I’ve been putting off listening to this for a while as I expected awfulness, but I’m actually very impressed.

          I think the bad pressing are a general problem of daptone records, because I got 4 Sharon Jones records on vinyl and they all sound like old and dirty records. No matter I try to clean, wash, whatever, the sound keeps poor and unpleasant. The only one that I can rate as a "good" pressing is Naturally.

            Ok so the record is a classic I love every track so it would be wrong of me to give such a record any less than 5 stars but as for the vinyl pressing shame on you Daptone someone has seriously messed up on this. The mastering wasn't done properly the volume keeps dipping in and out its so annoying and mine had a lot of crackles to not happy I've never had a problem with Daptone ever and love the label, seems like others are having problems to.

                  Two terrible copies down already. Anyone managed to get one that doesn’t have loud, intrusive crackle in the right channel from track 1?
