    good Pressing, not the best but really good. It is a bit tricky to put the records back into cover. The Album itself is outstanding as nearly all of Bill..

      Wanted to mention that out of the many vinyl LPs I own, this is hands down one of the best pressings I own, if not THE best. Totally noiseless, clear definition. Love it!! Love the music too, but the superb pressing makes it even better!

        Just received. Haven't listened to it yet but must mention the inner pockets are apparently way too glossy or something which makes them "sticky", making it very difficult to get the record out of the pocket, and once you get it out, good luck getting it back in......LOL. I'm thinking this is the cause of the scuffs people are mentioning?

          The bass sounds on my CD are just too much. Every time I play this I have to make sure the bass is reduced on my stereo. Otherwise glass will rattle. Pity really as it puts me off playing it.

            Some of you with a lesser copy have commented here, but my copy is perfect .. looks and sounds perfect! A great pressing, with a lot of warmth and detail in the acoustic guitars and dead quiet!

              Terrible vinyl, completely unlistenable and covered in scuffs. What a complete waste!

                Fuck me that's some ugly cover art. Then I saw the back, Jesus! I own 20 albums and various singles EPs by Bill but I'm not buying this unless there's a white label test press available.

                  Is there no code with this, as mine didn't have one?

                    My copy came sealed with an unreal amount of scuffing on sides 1 & 2. Didn't seem to affect the sound all that much & the pressing still sounds great--just very odd.
