USA FIRST PRESSING DOUBLE VINYL LP IN GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER SLEEVES.

This double album is cut from the same George Peckham (Porky/Pecko) mastering as the UK first pressing.

Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album?

First pressings are made from first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues and re-issues (which are often pressed from whatever tapes or digital sources are currently available). First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider and subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive, with inner details more clearer. On first and early pressings, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant.

SLEEVE: VERY GOOD+, JUST LIGHT SHELF, CORNER, RING AND EDGE WEAR. ONE OF THE BETTER, WHITER EXAMPLES WE HAVE SEEN IN RECENT TIMES. INNER SLEEVES HAVE A FEW CREASES AND SMALL MIDLE SIDE/BOTTOM SEAM SPLITS.

DISCS: EXCELLENT MINUS. NO SCRATCHES. NO NOTICEABLE SPINDLE WEAR, JUST A FEW VERY LIGHT HAIRLINES. DISCS DO NOT LOOK PLAYED MORE THAN ONCE OR TWICE, IF THAT. CLEAN LABELS.
