      I have listened intensively to earlier german, french and japanese pressings, even the new remastered ones on the fish label, for me nothing comes close to the English first press….

        Absolutely outstanding sounding pressing...for me her best work ever...unbeatable in of creativity, genius and ingenuity...a masterpiece and one of my all-time favorite albums

          Just bought this from Vertigo Music in Grand Rapids MI. Very quiet and dynamic pressing. A/B'd with a CD and the vinyl was more dynamic with a bigger bottom. The digeradoo on side 2 shook the floor on volume 22/100 (Marantz TT, Nagaoka MP110, Sansui G7700, JBL L166). No complaints, I recommend it.

            Absolutely incredible pressing. Dead silent. Instruments separated nicely and real warmth to the bass in particular.

              I'm a bit hesitant to purcahse japanese pressings after the later end of the 70s and 80s era. Sometimes you get an ear-piercingly bright, emotionless, pinched at the high frequencies mastering that will hurt your ears after 10 mins of listening.
              Othertimes you get the Holy Grail. And this pressing is the Holy Grail. It is sublime--beautifully voiced, dynamic, highly musical, super quiet vinyl. I've never heard this record sound better.

                This is the best Kate Bush album. There is no contest. Every song is mesmerising, haunting, captivating, provocative and at times disturbing. I don't know what she was on during the writing and recording of this album back in 1982 but it was the right stuff!
                This vinyl pressing is very good as the CD issue I had was harsh and jarring.

                  Have to agree with the consensus - what a lovely pressing. Just picked up a VG+ copy and wow - so detailed and immersive. Brings all the crazy detail to life. Love the album even more with this.

                    My copy of this was horribly noisy and even had skips on it's first play.
                    I see other reviews saying how good theirs are but mine is a disaster. Maybe someone had a bad day at the pressing plant?
                    I bought six titles in this run and haven't had an issue with the others sofar so don't know what to think.

                      I am very happy with this version. Great dynamics, which are very important on this record, especially in the vocals. My EU version was heavily compressed in comparison. It was louder, but had lost a lot of dynamics. If you want to really hear the record as it was probably intended, you should buy this one.

                        This version is heavily compressed, so much of the dynamic and expression, especially in the vocals, is lost compared to the UK first pressing
