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.
The grooves/backing on my vinyl records align with the second batch mentioned here. But my jacket's rear side is a bit distinct and resembles some of the newer versions... makes me wonder if someone swapped the records at some point. Either way, "My Generation" sounds fantastic. "Magic Bus" is just okay, to be honest.
The tunes are awesome, even though MAGIC BUS feels like a rushed, low-budget follow-up. This version is decent at best. MY GENERATION holds up pretty well, but MAGIC BUS has a few tracks that are downright painful, particularly "Disguises". My copy spins clean and clear, with hardly any hiss or pops on either side.
I've only come across these two albums together in this 2fer set. "My Generation" is a groundbreaking album, but the quality here is just alrightβyou can find better versions out there. As for "Magic Bus," the sound quality is downright awful! It's a good thing this is the least popular of their first four American albums, so it's not a huge issue. But let's be real, whoever put this "Deluxe Set" together didn't care about the sound at all. It's clearly a budget release with no thought given to audio quality. 5 stars for "My Generation"; 3 stars for "Magic Bus"; and 1 star for this terrible combo package.
Was this a bad record press or just my bad luck? The sound was way too sharp and hurt my ears.
