Amazing album - I can't be the only one thinking this …. it's true, it takes some effort at first but it's so rewarding… 👍
Left Channel Distortion Issue

Awesome album and it sounds fantastic BUT I keep noticing some distortion in the left channel during the opening tracks. It happens with various cartridges and turntables.
Dynamic Rendition Surprises
5 out of 5 stars

This version is absolutely amazing. I hadn't given it a spin in a while, just popped it on, read these comments and was surprised some folks had problems. If you're familiar with the band, you know what to expect, it's a super dynamic and powerful rendition of the album. That typo by vmp is pretty amusing too since this wasn't a record of the month pick.

If you're an audiophile or just a fan of this album, don't miss out on this pressing. It's top-notch quality. At $20, it's an amazing deal you shouldn't pass up.
