    Can anyone else speak on how compressed it sounds? Any silibance? I’m sure there’s at least some with each side cramming roughly 26 minutes on each side.

      My copy sounds amazing until the end of side B where there is some surface noise. My copy is signed on the cover by Amanda.

        Does anybody out there know about a 'RJ Sterling' pressing of this LP? Runouts are (A) '16861-7925-1A S-66630 RJ STERLING' & (B) 16861-7925-1B S-66631 RJ STERLING'. Has this pressing been missed on COGS?
