    CD or vinyl cover? Which is better? Wonder why the LP cover is slightly different? Was this ever explained? 
    Not totally unusual of a design practice

    What I don’t like about reissues is like with LO2L - the new cover looks like ass compared to the old one.

    Purple 10 sounds great to me. Hold that sucker to the light and it comes alive ;). I'm not an audiophile.

    I have found the 45 Vs to best the OG.  Overall I just don't think PJ studio records sound very good, whether OG or reissue.  They feel like a wall of noise most of the time, with little nuance.

    Agreed. As good of a job Levi has done with the 45 pressings of Yield and Vs, no album sounds phenomenal on vinyl. Maybe PJ has all their masters (but also they were signed to Sony so they may not have the final masters and Sony doesn’t releases their masters) so one day I’d really like some audiophile cuts.

    In 2023 then? I must have skipped it because I am a good boy. 

    But didn't I buy a 45rpm Yield album... why did I do that then. Can't keep track.

    As far as the 45 yield and vs cuts, it just allows more information on each track, so they sound more dynamic then the original. It also depends on your set up. Speakers pre amp etc. i find all the og from ten to riot act sound better then the 2016 repress. I would really love a 45 rpm of Binaural for its 25 year anniversary in May!,,,!!
