    Just copped one from Drag City's website (late August 2023). Waited a while for this to get repressed. Worth it to complete the trio of Diamond Jim's early "pop" records on Drag City. Really nice pressing too. Much quieter than some Drag City releases (especially the 2022 repress of "Bad Timing").

      Essential album, but you probably already knew that. (Unsurprisingly) the pressing/record itself sounds absolutely incredible.

        Someone gotta make a listing for the repress this is getting confuse. Also is this getting a proper US release?

              Not only is this my favorite Jim ORourke album, but the pressing is quiet and the dynamics are outstanding. Highly recommended.
