QUOTES ABOUT THE Hazel Yarwood -5 /-5 pressing:
“…the definitive mono pressing of rubber soul is known as the HAZEL YARWOOD cutting. this was cut after the (-1) and (-4) and it uses (-5 , -5 ) cuttings, but with these being known as the best sounding pressings they can be hard to find…”
“…Hazel predominantly worked with classical music releases but her attention to detail was incredible.
The dash 5 Yarwood Cut really is the definitive way to listen to this album in my opinion.
It’s warm, alive and joy to listen to.”
