    my record was scratched and in poor quality. I ended up buying the same record from someone else. I’m so tired of scammers

        I also have a promotional album. I have the VLADO in the deadspace.
        Need to edit. It has some noise. I changed my stylus and cleaned the record with Last cleaner, but there is still some noise.

          mine has promotion only over pricescan. Runout number side a AL 40867-1A, side b BL 40867-1A
          Perfect Sound quality, quiet and soft to solisten to.

            This album sounds amazing. Awesome pressing and a great album. Picked mine up for a dollar. What a steal.

              Wow, what a great sounding record. One of the most balanced I’ve heard!

                There is a VLADO version of Carrollton pressing and a Carrollton pressing WITHOUT VLADO. I have this VLADO in the runout and the variation 1 and it is impeccable sounding. Quiet, dynamic, little to no noise at all. The best I have ever heard any version of this recording in 30+ years.

                  I just came into this album in mint condition and this pressing is absolutely dynamic and stunningly pleasurable to my ears!

                    Record sounds AMAZING. Easily one of the best sounding original pressings of a record that I have. Volume is on the lower end, which makes some clicks seem louder, but other than that, a very, very solid pressing.

                      Sigh, oh GM! I can do without the reverb and echoey shimmer, but otherwise sounds pretty great. Music is actually really good, upon reflection. Of course, back in the day, you would never catch me dead wearing an oversized “Choose Life” t-shirt, but, you know, older and wiser now. Videos starring supermodels help.
