First one is defectiveThis is one of my favorite albums of all time. Somehow I did not have a copy of this on vinyl. I own several pressings of DSOTM but this would be my first 'Wish You Were Here'I never got to listen to this. There is a big glob of glue that destroys the ability to listen to this record. It is not listenable when an entire track is covered in glue.I take superb care of my vinyl. Each disk gets cleaned with my VPI 16.5 RCM and goes into a MFSL sleeve before even being played.
This disk was opened inspected and then returned. This was a factory sealed defect which means someone at the pressing plant put this defective record in the jacket.Where ever these are pressed I give an 'F' for quality on the 2016 pressing. Outstanding pressing of Wish You Were Here, no disappointments.ok first, there is nothing I can say about this LP that hasn't been said before so I'm not going there. If you're reading this, you know what you're looking at.
I have 2 copies, one that was loved to death and sounds more like listening to it over poor AM radio. It still has the magic tho. This new pressing, yeah, now we're talking. Pure Awesome.This LP in particular, great pressing, heavy jacket and sleeve, I love it. I didn't weigh it but it's definitely 180-200g vinyl.
Sound is true to what you'd expect, my copy is flawless.If you have a good Turntable and decent cartridge, and everything is properly setup, you won't be disappointed.
