Great Deal, Impressive Sound

I snagged my copy for $128.00 by pre-ordering. The packaging was solid, though inner sleeves of better quality would've been a nice touch, but it's not a huge deal. Each record was clean, flat, and free of scuffs. They've all played flawlessly, and the sound quality is impressive, though perhaps not quite up to par with some of the newer, craft contemporary records, but still really good. All in all, for the price, I'd say this is an amazing deal.

This is a solid, thorough review; I'm excited to dive into the package and see what's inside 😊 https://www.soulandjazzandfunk.com/reviews/charles-mingus-changes-the-complete-1970s-atlantic-studio-recordings-rhino/ Updated on July 2 2023: Happy Monday to all! Alright, I've now checked out most of this set; it's wonderfully pressed and packaged (even the paper sleeves, which you gotta swap out, are top-notch). Highly recommend for any Mingus enthusiast.
