    My favorite Nick Lowe album, and this pressing sounds very nice, the vinyl is quiet and flat, the music is warm and intimate, but the packaging is bare-bones, with several photos and some amusing text not ported over from the original release. But you don't play the inner sleeve, you play the record, and this is a wonderful sounding slab of wax.

      Lacquer cut by Tim Young, this one is a keeper.
      The music speaks for itself, killer Nick Lowe.

        Just picked this up. Sounds fantastic! Flat, silent vinyl, and the mastering is excellent. Highly recommended.
