I bought this for my kids, but I have to admit, it’s a great sounding record. Crystal clear and very spacious. Surprising for a commercial record like this. Vocals sound rich and full. Never thought I’d write a review about Taylor Swift….

As far as the sound of the vinyl recording, it is really good. The album is even better on vinyl than CD. It is a masterpiece.
However, I am displeased that the manufacturer did not put a sticker on on the packaging stating that the sleeve opened from the top. I kept trying to open the album from the side which caused tears at the side of the beautiful photo. I take good care of my record collection in the event that I may have to sell it one day, should I have to live in smaller space. I got half way through trying to open the side of the album when I realized it opens form the top. I hope that Acoustic Sounds posts this review. So that other purchasers will know the slit is at top of the cover, not the side.
As far a Acoustic Sounds delivery and mail packaging, it was great. No complaints.

Classic Ward here - despite the contributions of several other artists of note - the sonic signature so typical of past Ward albums remains largely intact, but this release seems a bit cleaner, with the mix and production being quite well-balanced and natural - revealing (on decent systems, of course - everythings relative, after all) a pleasing, organic sound that radiates analog vinyl. There are a few mellow numbers as well as a several up-tempo tracks with the rest falling somewhere in between. My copy was pressed on red vinyl and shows no trace of groove noise or, for that matter, any defect at all. A very well-pressed and great-sounding LP...and perhaps my new favorite M.W. album.

Dan Auerbach's fingerprints are all over this recording (he produces and contributes guitar & vocals) and CTE are much the better for it. Give the band credit for the change in direction - they had gone about as far as they could with the sound & style of their first three albums. Black Keys fans will hear the influence, and this is a different CTE than heard on their previous releases; the songwriting is more mature and melodic, and yes, more on the mellow side. The copy I received initially concerned me - it appeared slightly scuffed in places. However, the vinyl was without fault; totally flat & quiet, with no surface noise whatsoever. A great sounding LP from RCA and a different but positive direction for Cage The Elephant.

If you are into ambient dream-rock (sorry - it's the best I can describe this unique-sounding band) you'll find it beautifully presented on this LP. There is no indication where this title was pressed, and it appears to be standard 120-gram vinyl, but it was defect-free with dead-silent backgrounds and no surface noise. However, it may be closer to an EP than a LP - the six tracks barely total 31 minutes, but what's there sounds lush and involving.

I love the sound of this record. All those words that describe the ideal vinyl sound: lush, wide, deep, detailed but velvety, etc., are all true of this record. The production is absolutely first rate.
First, Lorde's voice is perfectly centered and placed high, as if she's literally on a pedestal. She has a mixture of girlishness and sultriness - maybe too much for a girl her age. Anyway, her voice perfectly compliments the music that flows beneath (and outward) from her voice.
The instrumentation is all electronic, as far as I can tell. But everything is so well-executed. For example, the bass is thumpy where it should be, but many times it's very deep and wide (I mean real bass). The sound stage spread farther than my speakers, and some of the effects where quite successful.
I know that Lorde is getting all the attention here, and she deserves to become a star. But for me, the real star here is the producer - a guy by the name of Joel Little - Wiki him to find out more.

I got this compilation set and really like it. You can tell that the individual songs are taken from multiple sources and have an uneven sound between the older songs and the newer ones but, nothing distracting. It is a set I would recommend but be aware that all the Foo Fighter albums are being released on Vinyl in Nov 2011. If you're a more hardcore fan than the entire albums may be a better choice for you. Just my two

Wonderful record, recorded well, and the music is fantastic. A real steal at this price and a must have if you like Elliott Smith.

MoFi keeps their streak going with another great release. Dead quiet vinyl with mastering that gives the cd a run for its money. This tracks are classic B-52's - a fun, great sounding album. Recommended.

It's a different style than normal for the Keys but nonetheless, its awesome! This has to be one of the cleanness sounding vinyls i've heard.

I'm a grandpa, painter, physicist and lover of good music. This LP has been getting lots of turn time since I purchased it a few weeks ago. Very good songs, nice voice and I really don't know anything else about this singer, except I like the album photos. Is she French (the songs are in English). Isn't it nice to handle the big art work that LPs provide?

Bjork's voice soar's especially in the song Unison. This song is perfect, that's about all I can think of, as to how to describe it. Of course McIntosh equipment and electrostatic speakers really bring out the best of her abilities. This is one of the only songs in recent memory that brings me to tears as her voice is so emotional and heart felt. I have both the CD and LP but I actaully think the CD sounds better. The album sounds good but sounds a bit soft, where as the CD is immediate and crisp. Usually I like albums more that CD's as being warmer and more emotional but I would say that the CD sounds better. Either way this one is highly recommended. Just my opinion....Lonnie
