    Shhhh...Don't tell anyone. This is the best sounding pressing of this compilation made in the USA. It's only rival is an original Apple UK PCS pressing from 1973. If you like the unique US capitol mixes, you will not find a better pressing of this. It is particularly good on their side 3 and 4 with some true Stereo Mixes. The Sound is warm, punchy, and the vocals are crystal clear....I own many of this Comp's pressing...this is the one you want. Be careful though, it looks just like the one's pressed in the 1970s. Also it is all analog...unlike the C1 pressing which I believe used a digital transfer... I think thats why it is sooo damn good
