    These are terrific pressings. Wonderfully put together. Typical heavy-duty Japanese cardboard sleeves, attractive obi, poly inner sleeves and interesting inserts regarding the Verve Label. Pressing quality is perfect, no surprise there. Surface noise is essentially non-existent. Sound quality is great, if a little bright. I believe this is common with Japanese pressings. But, overall a great package. Overall, very affordable if you're looking for Japanese pressings of these titles but can't afford the earlier pressings.
