More Hot Stamper Pressings on Blue Note
Sonic Grade: D
An Audiophile Hall of Shame pressing from Cisco / Impex / Boxstar.
You will have a hard time finding any pressing that doesn’t sound better than this “dubby” Cisco LP. (The DMM reissues are worse — no Blue Note pressings could possibly be so ridiculously bad as they are — but I can’t think of any others offhand that would be. The CDs, maybe, who really knows, but that’s a case of apples and oranges.)
If smeared transients and zero ambience are your idea of good sound, this is the record for you!
