    Slightly dusty coming out of the sleeve but other than that my copy sounds pretty much flawless. No surface noise or skipping to speak of.

      Apparently I just received a bad copy, because mine has skips all over the track All My Friends. Disappointing because it’s one of my favorite songs on the album.

        ordered a copy of this recently and had bad skipping on D7... like, real bad. sent it back and got it exchanged for another copy. after multiple wet cleans, the skipping is consistent w/ my replacement. all other tracks are A+++

          As this cost me nearly £60 from HMV, I was definitely expecting something better than just a bog-standard double LP. The price of records these days is going through the roof: it's all these blumming hipsters!

            SQ is phenomenal. Not going to knock the rating for this, but it's kind of annoying that this record is always a 4-sided pressing (2x2x2x3) when it could easily be a 3-sided (3x3x3) layout. One thing I always loved about the album is you can just play it through so beautifully, but having to stop and flip the record every two songs robs that a bit. Just the nature of the size and shape of the album, though. Still sounds incredible.

              Phenomenal pressing. One of the best records in my collection. So dynamic and great soundstage. Buy without hesitation.

                Where can I buy this version? Is this better that the 2016 optimal press?

                    I will back up previous comments. This pressing sounds brilliant. My first play through is at a quieter setting and the bass is still pulsing. This is a fine example of how records should sound.

                      Much, much, much quieter than an earlier pressing I've owned & returned. Solid SQ.
