    Runouts on mine also include the above but with the addition of 6775038

      These half speed releases do not work with Eno albums. To chop the 1st track over two sides of vinyl is absurd

        Dead quiet pressing, incredible detail. Very happy with this! Words

          This is a terrible pressing. Noise, pops, hiss, very bad quality.

            Does no one hear distortion on both sides of disc 1? On almost all of the loud sections I hear grating high levels of distortion. Sounds like hot mic distortion but it's not there in digital version. Perhaps issue with master tape? Disc 2 sounds really good. Clean and dynamic.

              Sounds great, bummed that the title track is split between side 1 and 2. Learning experience for someone who is new to ambient

                This is a really superb sounding effort by Eno. Disc one is where all the magic happens. The pachelbel variations are okay, but nothing like the primary piece. 45 RPM definitely sounds better than the 33 versions.

                180 g super quiet vinyl, excellent pressing. Recommended.

                    Excellent pressing. Only a couple of little ticks. Way more detail and information than my old EG label copy. card included. Beautiful package. Worth every penny of the £23.04 I paid.

                      Outstanding pressing. I am so happy this was finally reissued the way it was. In addition to the half speed, I am pretty sure all the half speed releases are 180g as well...
