    Mostly an excellent pressing with some caveats....

    The bad = theres no avoiding the surface noise inherent to this cut from beginning to end. Fresh out the sleeve and given a full ultrasonic clean it still plays with a light crackle not unlike an old used record but jist not quite as loud. Also there is some visible non fills at the very end of side two and they are audible but not excessively so.

    The good = its mastered very well! Fresh, crisp and tape warts and all which is what i want. Too many recent Al Green presses are rolled off and muffled to hell. Also its cut loud enough that the vinyl noise floor issues are minimised and simply dont spoil the listening which is a relief. I also noted my copy is flat as can be and looks pretty darn cool when on the spin! Finally the jacket is gloss and thick almost tip on-esque which also really sets this pressing apart.

    Conclusion = a great sounding pressing on a noisier than usual compound which thanks to the age and style of recording gets away with said noise to remain an EXCELLENT reissue well worth seeking out!

        My copy sounds great, i do agree that some of the vocals were recorded hot but it’s not distracting. Love the low end, the drums on this have a real clear thump. The green splatter looks great.

          This is a fun record with a very energetic sound. Some of the tracks have Al Green's voice a bit hot and distorted, and others sound amazing. It's a very good pressing and after a thorough wash in the ultrasonic cleaner the sound is clearer than it was new. All in all I'm really satisfied to own this. Good job, VMP!
