BOX/ARTWORK: BOX IS VERY GOOD+ WITH SOME EDGE AND CORNER SCUFFING (SEE PHOTOS) BUT NO DAMAGE. BOOK IS EXCELLENT MINUS. TWO OUTSIDE INNER SLEEVES HAVE THE START OF MIDDLE TOP SEAM SPLITS, BUT ALL INNERS ARE OTHERWISE EXCELLENT MINUS.
DISCS: ALL SIDES EXCELLENT MINUS WITH JUST A FEW LIGHT HAIRLINES INITIALLY CAUSED BY THE CARD INNER SLEEVES (DISCS SINCE HOUSED IN POLY-LINED INNERS). THE TRACK 'TIME' HAS SOME VISABLE HAIRLINE SCUFFING. CLEAN LABELS.
Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album?
First and early pressings are pressed from the first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues/re-issues (which, in recent times, are often pressed from whatever 'best' tapes or digital sources are currently available) - many so-called 'audiophile' new 180g pressings are cut from hi-res digital sources…essentially an expensive CD pressed on vinyl. Why experience the worse elements of both formats? These are just High Maintenance CDs, with mid-ranges so cloaked with a veil as to sound smeared. They are nearly always compressed with murky transients and a general lifelessness in the overall sound. There are exceptions where re-masters/re-presses outshine the original issues, but they are exceptions and not the norm.
First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider. Subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive. Inner details are clearer, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant and you 'hear' what the mixing and mastering engineers wanted you to hear when they first recorded the music.
