    I've had 3 copies of this and all of them contain numerous pops and clicks throughout. In all honestly, whilst the covers for the Tone Poets are much nicer, I don't find the vinyl itself to be any better than that of the Classic series pressed at Optimal. In fact, whilst I have numerous Classics that are perfect, I think just about all of my Tone Poet titles have more noise than I'd like even after a couple of vacuum cleans. So much for RTI being one of the '' plants in America...

      Great album marred by noisy surfaces, particularly on Side 2. Despite my disappointment, I must comment on the crisp and clear photos, not just the striking cover photo, but also the ones inside the gatefold. In particular, very nice portrait of Freddie Hubbard...so young! This artwork puts other reissues to shame, especially those done by VMP.

      I will spin this fairly frequently, but I will probably end up replacing it at some future date when someone else does a reissue.

        Displays the moody, voodoo-energy which he and Miles Davis would explore more robustly in years to come. Mr. Chambers's electric accompaniment sustains and organizes the varying textures throughout. Pressing is flawless.

          I have no problem with this pressing. Mine is clean, silent and flat. The music is very dynamic and detailed. This is one of Wayne Shorter's more interesting albums and it's definitely for listing and not to be played in the background. It leans more towards avant-garde and free jazz then post-bop and It really demands your attention. All the players are really dialed in. Joe Chambers and Herbie Hancock especially shine here!

            Great album but my copy has lots of crackle during silent parts even after ultrasonic cleaning

              One of the better sounding Tone Poets. Really nice stuff

                Ok I’m fairly new to jazz and yes My collection is adding up. Stunning pressing dead silent nicely done.

                  Light 4. Solid master, dead silent. By far a standout of the Tone Poet series in those . However, it sounds like Ed, Edd, & Eddy jazz; B1 being the only (welcomed) exception.

                      Ok this is a weird album. Yes it is intelligently arranged and the musicianship masterful, but it is weird. It's Wayne Shorter, however, so I am happy to have it in my collection. Not one I spin on a regular basis, though. Like the previous reviewer mine has some surface noise, which is outside of my experiences by and large with the tone poet series. Maybe another case of dud??? My tone poet copy of Expansions, however, is flawless.
