Excellent posted on 03/26/2022 5 Stars Reviewer: Kevin The sound is first class and the pressing excellent. There were a few pops, but I have not cleaned the record yet so it may get better. I loved the sound stage and balance of the instruments, the mastering is wonderful. You can't go wrong on this, and Freddie plays his heart out, and the band is amazing. I'll buy another copy for insurance.
