Wow, just received in the mail from Belgium, fantastic pressing so clean and dynamic.
Love the Smiths. -
I totally agree with previous review, this is an amazing sounding green vinyl! Dead quiet grooves and crystal clear pressing, a pleasant surprise. -
I expected this green vinyl version to be absolute bollocks sound wise, but it was a revelation.
Clear, crisp sound all the way through, side to side.
Not sure how they did it, nor how a black vinyl version could sound better - but if it is, wow!
Recommended.
