I’m no expert, but I don’t think this is actually Dynaflex. The DF records I have from this period are thin, floppy slabs of near-garbage, and my copy of this pressing is fairly thick, stiff and sounds great. (The sound is actually pretty similar to the recent hi-res remasters, but a bit thicker and more forward.)
There are no markings on the cover or inner sleeve about it being dynaflex (which was a marketing term RCA came up with to justify using thinner vinyl, and RCA is the only label I’ve seen use the term). The dead wax markings also share nothing with my other DF pressings.
I am calling that a mistake in the listing, but have no way to prove it. -
I'm just wondering what the signs are that it's dynaflex? Is it just by the way it feels or is it written on somewhere? I have some dynaflex from some other labels but it is usually has the dynaflex logo or stamp somewhere
