  • Castaway Sea Glass Production Count

    5 out of 5 stars
    awoxwOctober 4, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Has anyone heard if they've shared how many of the Castaways Sea Glass were made? They went out of stock super quick, so I'm really wondering what the number was.

  • Discs Poor Quality, Returned Both

    1 out of 5 stars
    FjhykbJune 18, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Two discs, same issue. Sent them both back. Awful quality.

  • Silent but Underwhelming

    2 out of 5 stars
    maihewbiffMay 6, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Unbelievably hushed. Like... maybe twice as silent as a regular 33 RPM record, and even more so than high-end audiophile stuff. This and Castaways share the same problem, so, yep. You'll crank it up to full volume and it still won't quite reach that immersive 3D stereo sound you're after, unless, I guess, you've got a really powerful preamp and speaker system? Still... pretty letdown - poor mastering.

  • Loud Disappointment

    2 out of 5 stars
    tdmau00April 9, 2025United States🇺🇸

    My version is also super loud, which is really bumming me out.

  • Sound Quality and Artwork Excellent

    5 out of 5 stars
    YjoFegAugust 10, 2024United States🇺🇸

    The sound quality of my copy is fantastic, even in the softer sections. Plus, the album artwork is gorgeous.
