    Disclaimer - my copy came to me used with unknown provenance, so I can't tell if my experience is based on problems inherent in this pressing or if my specific copy was mistreated by a previous owner.

    That said, my copy is tainted by extreme distortion throughout, making this essentially unplayable. The record itself looks clean and undamaged, and I've given it a couple of washes on the Okki Nokki, but this still sounds terrible on my SL-1500C with Ortofon 2M Bronze. It's possible that this is an extremely poor pressing, but equally possible that mine is a one-off mispress, or that the grooves have been damaged by a worn, broken, or misaligned stylus.

    It seems this is a rare pressing but if someone reading this has one in their collection, could you please comment on the sound quality?
