got this the same day i broke up with my boyfriend. sounds great!
rikardo42 Jun 16, 2024
Great pressing, sounds great, sounds clean.
It's so good, it's only a little bit sad that the team decided to press the new re-record on 45 RPM and not 33 1/3 RPM like the old album.
banic Feb 22, 2024
I’ve received an okay copy… Side A/C and D sounds absolutely phenomenal with a great mastering and super quiet pressing (in of surface noise, the volume is great)… side B is horrible, the bass on 22 especially the chorus is super loud until it overpowered her voice , which makes the whole song unlistenable. but other than that, a phenomenal release!

Great quality pressing! i'm not an audiophile or anything, but I didn't notice anything bad while playing this one, no skips, big pops or everything was nice and clear!
mdw19 May 22, 2021
records themselves sound really really great! love the packaging too it all just looks brilliant. however the packaging feels kinda cheap and is pretty flimsy.. not too upset about that though, glad to own this album finally 😊
parsival Mar 18, 2021
The pressing of this one is done by Record Industry in the Netherlands and is flawless.
However production and recording of the album is just terrible. Very compressed sound with metallic mids/vocals as it is often the case with digital recordings in the last 25 years.

If you own a great system for listening avoid this production!

Anyone can give a review on the sound quality ? Thanks

When did this become so rare? I bought this for normal retail price the other day from a local record store and now it seems as if Red has become rare?
