Al Green - Call Me

Product No: AHIR 32077
Available: InStock
Category: 180 Gram Vinyl Record
Label: Speakers Corner (Hi)

Excellent

5 Stars
Posted Wednesday, December 7, 2022 by Anonymous Having all the good Al Green original pressings, except this one, I took a chance, and paid for a pressing that might sound better than the original. So glad I did. My system is under 5k, but my modified Klipsch Chorus speakers are very revealing of bad and mediocre pressings. What I hear from this one is fabulous. Very impressed with Speakers Corner pressings.

Posted Sunday, June 12, 2022 by Pittsburgh This record kicks funky butt! Maybe not the very best recording ever, but so what?! It's still quite good and almost every track is a head bopping, toe tapping good time. Pax!

Posted Friday, June 10, 2022 by Anonymous Excellent mastering … love the extras and the mono tracks. Still packs as much of a punch as it did in 71.

Nice recording and pretty quiet vinyl

4 Stars
Posted Tuesday, April 13, 2021 by Brian VanPelt The pressing is pretty nice, but I did notice some inner groove distortion on the very last song. I though the dynamic range was pretty strong, but the soundstage seemed a little shrunken, in that I didn't feel that the music extended all the way from speaker-to-speaker.

The vinyl was fairly quiet. In fact, I don't remember any loud noises (crackles or pops) anywhere on the record. But there are some light clicks and such throughout the album, not bothersome. Overall, a clean record.

The recording seems pretty good, but there's nothing unusually great about it. The album is well-produced, and any singing seems to come from the middle of the back wall.

Mixed feelings

4 Stars
Posted Tuesday, March 9, 2021 by Anonymous The pressing is excellent/quiet, and the gold vinyl is beautiful! But I have mixed feelings about the sound. Some of the tracks sound wonderful and warm, like "One of a Kind (Love Affair)" and "They Just Can't Stop It The (Games People Play)". Others like "I'll be Around" sound bright. Not sure what the source was, or if it was different for some of the tracks. My analog components are all tube and tend to the warm side, yet on some of the tracks I felt the need to turn the volume down. Overall recommended, but can't give it 5 stars.

Defective packaging

3 Stars
Posted Friday, January 8, 2021 by Anonymous Good album and all, but the materials used in the inner sleeves left a lot of debris all over the records. Whatever the particles are, they were abrasive and clinging to the records. Professional cleaning could not help all of the audible pops and clicks.

Great

Posted Friday, August 7, 2020 by Garz This record is so much fun. A nearly perfect product from Speaker’s Corner. Only improvement that I would prefer is a gatefold (which was probably not true of the original). Recommended highly

truly great sound

5 Stars
Posted Thursday, March 8, 2018 by EW in this hobby for over 20 years but this is my first review. Why, simply because this is a truly amazing recording. Typically I am not a fan of Greatest Hits albums. This however is one of the really good ones.

Compressed and flat

3 Stars
Posted Sunday, March 27, 2016 by Mike A This reissue is flat and without good bass, compared to the cd!. and that is not saying much as I have been buying a lot of Audiophile titles of late with great results. This one misses the mark big time sorry.

Great Album / Good Remaster

Earth, Wind & Fire - That's The Way Of The World

Product No: AIMX 6015
Available: InStock
Category: 180 Gram Vinyl Record
Label: Impex

4 Stars
Posted Saturday, August 31, 2013 by Anonymous Ok, first of all I'm a big fan of the Impex re-issues. When I saw this offering I jumped on it, thinking of 70's nirvana. While waiting for it to arrive, I pulled out my original and after a playing knew they would have their hands full with this one. The re-issue is an improvement in every way, they even lightened the cover artwork. The record is dead flat and completely void of ticks and pops but lacks all those audiophile attributes. I have to wonder why they picked this album for their catalog. I am certain that Impex did their best with the source they had to work with, but if I had to do it again I would gladly pass on this one, but your opinion may be different though I think the better your system the more you will be disappointed. Crank up the volume and party on......
