The only version of this album that we offer has the British track listing, so don’t pick this one up if you’re looking for great sounding versions of Let’s Spend The Night Together or Ruby Tuesday.
A bummer, but the domestic copies sound awful, so what can you do?
Also, the early UK Decca label pressings have never impressed us.
Congested and compressed, with no real top, who in his right mind could possibly tolerate that kind of sound nowadays?
The early Deccas might be passable on the old school audio systems of the 60s and 70s, but they are much too unpleasant to be played on the high quality modern equipment we use.

Consider taking our moderately helpful advice concerning the pressings that tend to win our shootouts.
