    On my copy it is side 2 which is pressed a bit off-center, side 1 is fine. Luckily it is not so bad that it affects sound, but still puzzling that they chose a pressing plant with such poor QC when they seemed to have put so much effort into all other aspects of this release.

    Other than that it is a great release, which sounds great. Prospective buyers should just be aware that it is apparently a bit of a lottery draw whether you get a perfect centered pressing or not.

      Awesome album pressed perfectly on vinyl. Record is dead silent and flat. Excellent late ‘60s Stones vibe on these songs along with some killer roots rock. Definitely an album worthy of wider recognition.

        Side 1 is pressed off-axis, otherwise, this record sounds excellent.

          Soo good! What a fantastic and special sound they achieved. Great vinyl quality also.

            is this die cut similar to some of the other reissues?

              Sounds fantastic. Near silent backgrounds. Sounds close to the original.
