"I am very disappointed with the Vinyl copy of 4:13 Dream - its running like an egg - in german we use the verb "eiern" for it - which would be "to wobble" in english. Also the vinyl is quite thin. The record shop in Vienna was very kind and exchanged it. But it isn't much difference with the new one....Did you hear any other complaints ?" (Thanks Thomas)
Anyone else having problems?

I have one, but haven't listened to it yet. I can confirm that it's very thin though.
ReplyDeleteNot a problem with the US pressing. But this is more a mark of pressings in general these days. Due to the recent resurgence, there is very limited availability among pressing plants. It seems that a lot of quality control has gone out the window of late as most of these places are running over capacity to meet demand.
ReplyDeleteIf i had some money i'd set up a vinyl pressing plant!
ReplyDeleteAnalog baby : )
I get a LOT of pops and scratches on mine. My record player is shit and the cartridge is half gone, but when I listen to any other record, it's fine.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else getting the same? :(
i bought an amercian pressing in Australia and one of the inner sleeves was all torn up and crinkled even though the whole thing was sealed. i didn't play it cos i wanted to return it. i've been waiting 2 weeks for a replacement but JB HIFI reckons it'll be hard to get cos my damaged one was apparently the only one in Australia (which I think is highly unlikely).
ReplyDeleteI have a vinyl copy, but haven't played it yet. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the vinyl is complete shit. Low grade vinyl, pops and hisses everywhere (I have a new needle). Had it exchanged because 3 tracks were unlistenable. Got the new copy and now the first 3 tracks are messed up. Very low quality. The sleeves are too tight for the records. Blah. BLAH I SAY! It's universal skimping on vinyl production costs. I EXPECT all new vinyl to be on at LEAST 180 weight vinyl.
ReplyDeleteI was going to get a vinyl but maybe now I won't!
