Such a fun record with great sound. The drums do sound a bit forward but it’s still very enjoyable. My copy was flat and sounds great. When I get a bad pressing I try to send it back. -
Not a great pressing. As others have already documented, I heard a ton of "fuzz" (to the point where I thought it was the needle/stylus) and distortion. Great album from Hancock. Mediocre pressing. -
Picking up this record is like playing the lottery. Some people may have won the jackpot with a perfect pressing. I, on the other hand, picked up a whammy - all sorts of no-fill and distortion all over the record. Total disappointment.
-
Mine plays perfectly. I notice zero distortion during Triangle, even though I was made hyper aware that there might be. Technics 1300 AT540ML. Maybe some people need to switch to a DD :D
-
Sounds good but a fair amount of wow/flutter on side B which isn’t great. Don’t know if it’s my copy of the recording the piano sound too wobbly for me -
I got a good copy and imho this is far better sounding than most of the famous blue notes. Cleaned B4 playing, with RCM, as with all purchases I make now. The artistry from the pianist and his fellow musicians is refreshingly original and exquisitely crafted.
-
Spectacular! My first copy like that of many others’ was riddled with distortion. I sent it back and got another copy from a different seller (these can tend to be bad in batches) and the second copy was perfect. -
Just picked one up and there was terrible distortion bits all over the record. The usual Optimal shit.
-
I'm extremely happy with this pressing. Flat and VERY quiet with good channel separation. Bass, mids and treble are on point. Blue Note also provided a lined inner sleeve, which was a welcome sight. Even if this isn't the best pressing, I'm still satisfied and recommend it to Hancock fans who can't find an OG copy. It's easily the best $27 I spent in a while!!! -
It seems like I lucked out, or perhaps there's new pressing run. Perfectly flat, and no noise at all except 1 quick zip from a non fill spot (as is sadly sometimes common with these blue note classics). Overall very enjoyable
