    I just received this in the mail yesterday.  I totally forgot I ordered it.  Mine is black vinyl.  I didn’t know colored versions were available.

    Just played mine. Sounds really good except LP4, might need to clean it, had some distortion.

    I got through the first two and sounded fantastic.  I'll check 4 today.  May have to preemptively run it through the Okki Nokki.

    A friend of mine picked up a fine early pressing of this one up for me.  Too cool!

    I've been super lucky with getting some great new stuff lately but this one comes under the heading "Where have you been all my life."  I've been a Link Wray fan for a good 46 or 47 years so how on earth did I miss this one?  Musicians here include the likes of Jerry Garcia, Commander Cody, David Bromberg among others. I'm totally blown away.  I love this record!

    You know what's funny is this album has been on my mind and have been wanting to revisit it.

    What is the verdict in re-listening to it?

    The verdict is that it's actually better to me now than it was when it was new! A super duper fun listen, and they are so cheap on discogs, I don't see why anyone wouldn't get this album! ;)

    There was a reissue not too long ago I think.  Is that it,  or an original?

    Yes there was, but this is an original (the Canadian pressing). I can't work out why anyone would buy the reissue when there are so many originals available for way cheaper, even after taking shipping into account. I think the Amazon.ca reissue was nearly $40CAD. I got this for $12 + domestic shipping.

    Unless there is a special edition with ephemera from your favorite band(s) that you want to collect, there really is no reason to buy reissues of 80's vinyl. There were so damn many of them pressed that OG's are readily available on the cheap.

    I have found that the fidelity of 80's albums to be subpar overall.  That's not always true, but it is often true.  There are some that are very good though.  I think I read somewhere that they started using recycled vinyl or something.
