Was lucky enough to find a really good one for only a dollar. Now a days a dollar for any record is good but for this it’s just awesome. As for the pressing, no complaints. Just a very nice, powerful sound.
-
Despite my copy of this being one of the most beaten up records I own, it's one of the best purchases I've made and for the price I got it, I wouldn't ever regret it. Sound quality is good overall (even for a beaten up version) and I suspect it'd be even better on a less beaten up version. It's worth the money. -
Mine is identical to this listing except for the Matrix/Runout on Side 1. I've got A-2 instead of A-4. Whats up with that? Also, I have not been able to find another record with () underneath the catalog number on both labels. Thanks!
