    Anyone pick this up?  I'm curious, as to the quality of this pressing.
    Mine sounds great... I have the bootleg as well, which sounds pretty damn good. It's nice having an official release finally though.

    I received my copy from Amazon, and it's going back.  The packaging was fine, the sound was not.  The vinyl was flat, pretty quiet, I didn't see any scratches.  The sound of the second record has some left channel distortion  going on.  To confirm is wasn't my turntable, I played it back to back on both of my turntables. I also listened with headphones and it was definitely more noticeable. I hope it was just my copy.  My replacement should arrive on Friday.

  • My copy will arrive tomorrow. I pay particular attention to any vinyl I get from Amazon. The quality I’ve received from Amazon is not good and vowed never to order from them again. But, the local stores don’t have the record... what can you do

    Finally got around to listening to my copy of Facelift and I thought it sounded really good. I got it from Amazon when it first came out.

    I listened to mine at a low level the other night. Sounded good, maybe a little loud. Will have to turn it up next time and see if it opens up the soundstage or distorts.

    I had my local record store order it. I picked it up Saturday, but I haven't had a chance to spin it yet.
