    This pressing sounds very muddy to me. I haven't heard any other pressings of this record but I have to imagine the UK pressings sound much better. This doesn't give me the experience I expect from an LP from this era - I had a much better experience listening to the 2021 digital remasters.

      Very nice sounding US pressing. I have this one and it is really clean and early warm recording. IF you cant find or afford the UK 1st Press this is a very close second . Essential to find a clean copy...for all the quiet tracks and dynamic aural responds! Very cool Mad Hatter label ! Doc Vinyl
