I have a really clean copy of this and yes, track A4 has some pretty noticeable distortion once the drums kick in, but the rest of it sounds really solid. I don't mind it personally considering I got a decent price for it. That said, if you have other options I would say go with a different pressing.
-
ATTENTION, this pressing has some major problems, some cuts do not play correctly, on mine it is A4. Something went wrong here, DON`T BUY IT for any price, luckily I had an honest seller who refunded me completely. -
I agree on the issue of serious distortion and would add there are some spots where I get jumps on a very clean looking vinyl. I have two copies and both have distortion and major sibilance issues.
-
Both copies I've found of this have some pretty serious distortion on side A2-4. It seems to be a common issue on this pressing.
