    Nearly no bass. Odd mixing for sure. Low noise, 5-6/10.

      Has anyone found a mastering credit on their RCoA pressing?

        Oddly enough, this is the best sounding copy of this album I’ve ever owned. It’s superb. I prefer it over several of of the newer reissues and other pressing from the same vintage. Strange for a club issue but sometimes it happens.

          Is this copy really from 1969? (Would be cool if it were!) Don't care too much if it's not, just asking for a friend.
