    Clear and decent sound with little to no surface noise. As is the case with many Japanese versions however, bass seems to be a bit on the lower side which is a shame as it could’ve been perfect had it been slightly higher.

      Very good pressing with really nice detail, but could have been even better if they hadn't decided to include an extra track on each side, (Heart Of Glass on side A and Sunday Girl on Side B) and use the space to add more "oomph"

        Have to crank this one a bit because the mastering is so quiet, but it sounds fine when you do. No Atomic poster with my copy.

          Great press, sounds brilliant. No surface noise, really dynamic and spacious, and the vocals are clear throughout.
