    Great sounding pressing but disc one suffers from a really bad warp.

      Looking at the comments, I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. Perfectly flat discs, clean, scuff free, and they sound excellent. The music is fantastic. I'd say it's worth the gamble at these current prices.

        my copy plays and looks great. extremely slight warp on record 1 side A but not enough for me to bother for a replacement (its that miniscule). sound quality is really great. wouldve been nice to have polylined sleeves but thats about it. super good pressing

          My records looks great but there is some pops and static in the i tro on A1. Anyone else having this problem?

            Just bought a new copy straight from the shop in London and it sounds amazingly good! Looking forward to their next wave of J-jazz releases

              The sound is great, but on mine, LP1 is warped and side 2 has a large and very audible scratch/scuff right in the middle, right out of the sleeve first time. Not acceptable, especially at £31. Going back to the shop for a replace or refund. A shame. The mastering/pressing is otherwise great, and the album very good indeed.

                my brand new copy: LP1 is warped, jumping, repeating; need to return it
