• Green Vinyl, Great Audio

  5 out of 5 stars

  The audio quality on this is fantastic, it's got a really lively sound and I'm loving the green vinyl, they totally got the color of the pot leaf spot on!

• DSS Version Shines Bright

  5 out of 5 stars

  Go for this DSS version, it's way better than the Qobuz CD one, it's like comparing night and day. A true treasure if you're a fan of this album. Not a single skip or click on my copy, the packaging is gorgeous, and the release is stunning.

• Original Tapes Instrumental Version

  5 out of 5 stars

  Excellent quality record. I'd guess they utilized the original tapes for the DSS One Step pressing and also made this instrumental version while they were doing it.

• Mixed feelings, decent sound

  4 out of 5 stars

  I'd give it a rating somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars. I'm a member of the club. Shipping: The shipping quality is pretty poor, about a 1 out of 5. The mailer is cheap and had no padding, so a seam ended up splitting. To be honest, Amazon does a better job. Packaging: The cover is really nice. I have the standard pressing, and this one is quite cool because it's foiled and really stands out. However, it's just a single wide pocket, not a gatefold. It's on regular stock and is pretty thin. Combined with the shipping method, I ended up with a lot of bent corners and a seam split at the top. It comes in a VMP-style resealable sleeve, which is fine. The slipmat is just included separately and isn't part of the actual record package. If someone were reselling this as sealed, there's no guarantee you'd get the slipmat unless they opened the outer sleeve and stuck it in. The slipmat is pretty much a standard felt one. I won't use it, but it's fine for the average person. The mini poster is included in the sleeve. I have a previous pressing of this, and this mini poster is worse. It seems like they scanned the old one and reprinted this at a lower resolution. It's blurry and, in my opinion, low quality. Pressing Quality: When I first opened it, the records were quite dirty. They looked like the floor mats in my car. There was also some light scratching. However, I ran them through my ultrasonic cleaner, and that got everything off. I highly recommend wet washing them before playing. The color is really nice, I do like that. Sound Quality: I'd rate the sound quality as good. It sounds about the same as my previous pressings. Good bass, so-so higher end, typical classic Hip Hop sound. It's not a demonstration disc, but I definitely got into it. And despite the records both being dirty with some mild scratching, mine were silent and played without any noise. Overall, I'm generally happy about it, love the alternative cover, but I'm not sure if I'll continue with this series.

• Walmart Vinyl Impresses

  5 out of 5 stars

  I must say, this sounds way better than I thought it would (especially considering it's Walmart's colored vinyl). After spinning all four sides, I only noticed a couple of pops or clicks during the music. The sound is crisp and detailed. The bass is there, but it doesn't take over. I was really on the fence about buying this after reading all the not-so-great comments about the 'interscope' version that's three times the price. There were no reviews here, so I decided to give it a shot. (Of course, I gave it a good clean with the wet vac before playing, like I do with all my albums). I'd definitely recommend it!
