This edition truly matches the album's theme and the cover art perfectly. The color is a gorgeous marble shade in person. The vinyl is nice and thick. It's a different sounding Tyler, but I still dig the album for what it is!
The packaging is absolutely lovely, and the jacket is of good quality with some nice extras. The vinyl itself looks beautiful, and the sound is alright but not exceptional. I'm not sure if it's the mix or the pressing, but the midrange has a bit of unpleasant distortion. The worst part is the rough paper sleeves the discs come in. Even after a thorough wet cleaning, my stylus is still pulling out lots of fuzz from the grooves.
The audio quality is fantastic! I'm really impressed with the triple-gatefold design and the oriole vinyl's appearance.
Overall, the sound quality is quite decent, though there are a couple of crackles here and there. I haven't given it a good clean yet, though. Funny thing, on my copy, Side C is actually labeled as Side D. Has anyone else come across this little mix-up?
I've got a copy that's playing smoothly and quietly, no skips or funny noises. It sounds fantastic. Maybe a tad too loud and not dynamic enough at times, but that's the album's production, not the vinyl's fault. The tri-fold mural inside is stunning and printed beautifully, and the packaging is top-notch. I'm usually not one for fancy stuff (I mostly stick to black vinyl), but the oriole disc color is really lovely. But I've got a couple of issues: 1. There's no lyrics booklet. I love following along with the lyrics while listening, so I'm bummed this album doesn't have one. It must be on purpose since the rest of the packaging is so well thought out, but it's a real letdown. 2. This should totally be a three-sided record. Some folks might not dock a star for this, but I will. A three-sided record is pure joy and should be the standard for albums like this, where the tracks and length would fit perfectly into three sides, each around 15 to 19 minutes. Other than that, it's a great album and I'm thrilled to have it. But seriously, start pressing more records on three sides. I genuinely believe we can make three-sided records the norm, one snarky Discogs review at a time.
