Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
I've had the original for quite a while and never thought I'd need a reissue. But lately, I've been really impressed with Speakers Corner, so I decided to give this one a shot out of curiosity. And here I am. The original was recorded quite hot and has always sounded amazing. This reissue does a fantastic job of preserving all the great qualities of the original mastering. The music essentially sounds the same; there's no loss in the performance, but there's also no "hearing it with new ears" moment. However, the Speakers Corner reissue steps it up when it comes to the cut and pressing. The SC is cut louder; Side B especially shows this as the groove takes up a lot more space when you compare side-by-side. The instruments feel a bit more upfront and present. But the real difference is the pressing by Pallas. Absolutely no surface noise and perfectly quiet in all the right spots (it's especially groovy on Side B, which thrives in those quiet spaces of those slow jams). The rest of the package, especially the gatefold jacket, are all welcome upgrades to the original. Again, superior work at keeping the feel of the original record and adding today's quality standards to it. I won't be getting rid of my NM/NM original anytime soon, but I'll probably end up playing this one more often. If you're looking to upgrade, replace a worn copy, or you've never owned this record before, I would highly recommend this version as it'll be your last.
Speakers Corner delivers exactly what you'd hope for - fantastic pressing and gorgeous mastering ... doesn't hurt that the music is so great too
