DaveTee1968 May 7, 2024
The yellow vinyl is awful. Muffled and compressed to the max. It's unlistenable. 4th try now. Think I'm gonna give up
mcgoum20 Sep 18, 2023
I have to disagree with several comments saying this pressing is terrible, as mine sounds really good. Not stellar, as the original digital version is very compressed, but very enjoyable to my ears.

Setup:
Fluance RT-85 with Ortofon 2m Blue stylus
Cambridge Audio AXA35 Receiver
Refurbished vintage Dynaco A-25 speakers
alb0403 Aug 15, 2021
Probably one of the worst sounding records I’ve ever owned. Sounds muted and muffled. Avoid
jordan0610 Mar 21, 2021
Just got my clear vinyl in from Amazon. It sounds fantastic. Consider me lucky based on other reviews.

Hmmm...having now played the Clear Vinyl version twice from brand new and sealed, I am still hearing a lot of distortion on several tracks - either I have a bad copy or this is how all Clear Vinyl variants sound. Can anyone else share their thoughts on this vinyl:

This pink variant does not exist and I'm not sure why Discogs hasn't deleted this listing. A pink variant for "Strange Desire: The Demos" exists but not for the full-length.

There is also a Orange Marble (?) pressing too for the pre-orders.
