    I agree with one of the earlier comments. Fairly quiet pressing but lacking depth and definition. The mix seems muddy and muted. My copy was also slightly warped.

      My copy of this club pressing sounds great. Noiseless and clear. Not a ton of depth, but happy with the sound. To think someone bought this for a fraction of a penny back in the day. :-)

        I have 2 copies of the inner and outer sleeve of this in good condition if anyone is looking, no LP though. Lyric pages included.

            My copy plays extremely well with only a couple of pops, SQ is excellent and it’s quiet pressing other than a couple of pops a good cleaning might even take care of them.

              This pressing sounds awful. Trebly, brittle- bright, sounding like it's being played on a small transistor radio with a small speaker. Really disappointed.

              Played using a Pioneer PL-30K turntable, AT95E cart, on an old Pioneer VSX 505S analog amp with PSB Alpha T1 tower speakers.
